Dust Monitoring

Why can dust be a health hazard?

Dust is present in most workplaces. Dust can be irritating to the eyes and respiratory system and some dust types can be toxic and cause severe long-term disease. Many dusts are carcinogenic, such as welding fumes, some heavy metals, hard wood dust, quartz, and asbestos. These dusts require a higher level of control to manage exposure.
