RESPIRATORY EQUIPMENTWhen air-filtering respirators are suitable a filter for organic gases with a boiling point above 65°C. meeting EN141 should be used in combination with a correctly fitted mask.
HAND PROTECTIONWear suitable protective gloves conforming to EN 374.
The actual level of protection provided by protective gloves can be difficult to assess. Effective breakthrough times should be used with care and a margin of safety shoulld be applied. HSE guidance recommends a safety factor of 75% be applied to times obtained by laboratory tests. Seek advice from manufacturer or supplier.
Personal hygiene is a factor in effective hand care. Gloves should only be worn on clean hands. After using gloves hands should be washed and dried thoroughly and a non-perfumed moisturiser applied.
EYE PROTECTIONWear tightly fitting safety goggles conforming to EN166 HYGIENE MEASURESWash at the end of each work shift and before eating, smoking and using the toilet. Contaminated work clothes should be removed and laundered before re-use.
