SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS cont.

    • Lead from lead-based paints.
    • Crystalline silica from bricks and 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 those dust masks that 

       are specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.

  drilling and other construction activities. Wear protective clothing and wash 

  exposed areas with soap and water.  Allowing dust to get into your mouth, 

  eyes, or lay on the skin may promote absorption of harmful chemicals.

  known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other
