defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemical are:
• Lead from lead-based paint
• Crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products
• Arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber
Your risk to these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To reduce
your exposure to these chemicals:
• Work in a well ventilated area
• Work with approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are specifically designed to
filter out microscopic particles.
