examples of these chemicals are:
– Lead from lead-based paints.
– Crystalline silica from bricks, cement,
and other masonry products.
– Arsenic and chromium from
chemically-treated lumber.
Your risk from these exposures varies,
"
depending upon 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 dust masks that
are specially designed to filter out
"
microscopic particles.

from power sanding, sawing,
grinding, drilling, and other
construction activities. Wear
protective clothing and wash
exposed areas with soap and water.
Allowing dust to get into your mouth
or eyes or to lie on the skin may
promote absorption of harmful
chemicals.
