WOBO reminds you that dust is a long term killer.
In early 2022 the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) completed a project to update the evidence base on wood dust exposure risks in British manufacturing industries. In so doing, HSE gained a better understanding of how it could support small and medium-sized woodworking enterprises in controlling exposure to wood dust.
In this new case study HSE Occupational Hygienist, Andrew Simpson shares findings from twenty-two occupational hygiene assessment visits that were carried out at woodworking manufacturing sites.
