8. Exposure Controls/personal Protection

Control parameters

• Exposure Limits: No value assigned for this specific material by Safe Work Australia. However, Workplace Exposure Standard(s) for constituent(s):

Magnesium oxide (fume): 8hr TWA = 10 $mg/m^3$ Dusts not otherwise classified: 8hr TWA = 10 $mg/m^3$

As published by Safe Work Australia Workplace Exposure Standards for Airborne Contaminants.

TWA - The time-weighted average airborne concentration of a particular substance when calculated over an eight-hour working day, for a five-day working week.

These Workplace Exposure Standards are guides to be used in the control of occupational health hazards. All atmospheric contamination should be kept to as low a level as is workable. These workplace exposure standards should not be used as fine dividing lines between safe and dangerous concentrations of chemicals. They are not a measure of relative toxicity.

Appropriate engineering controls

• Engineering controls: Apply technical measures to comply with the occupational exposure limits.

If in the handling and application of this material, safe exposure levels could be exceeded, the use of engineering controls such as local exhaust ventilation must be considered and the results documented. If achieving safe exposure levels does not require engineering controls, then a detailed and documented risk assessment using the relevant Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) (refer to PPE section below) as a basis must be carried out to determine the minimum PPE requirements.

Individual protection measures, such as personal protective equipment The selection of PPE is dependent on a detailed risk assessment. The risk assessment should consider the work situation, the physical form of the chemical, the handling methods, and environmental factors.

OVERALLS, SAFETY SHOES, SAFETY GLASSES, GLOVES, DUST MASK. (Diagrams shown for safety glasses, gloves, goggles, and full overall suit/respirator)

• Eye/face protection: If splashes are likely to occur, wear safety glasses with side-shields.
• Skin and body protection: Wear suitable protective clothing.
• Hand protection: Wear suitable gloves.
• Respiratory protection: If determined by a risk assessment an inhalation risk exists, wear a dust mask/respirator meeting the requirements of AS/NZS 1715 and AS/NZS 1716.
• Environmental exposure controls: Avoid creating dust. Do not allow into any sewer, on the ground or into any body of water.
