Working with Lead Exposure in Construction Environments

Created specifically for OSHA's Lead Standards for construction environments, Working with Lead Exposures in Construction Environments was designed for employees in workplaces where lead and lead-based materials are found.

Working with Lead Exposures in Construction Environments addresses the major areas of employee training required by the regulations. Because of the widespread use of lead-based paints, as well as other materials containing lead, this safety compliance training is useful to a number of different groups including building/construction companies, manufacturers, recyclers and many others.

Topics covered in Working with Lead Exposures in Construction Environments include:

• Contents of the standards.
• "Measurement" concepts:
  • Permissible exposure limits (PEL)
  • Time weighted average (TWA)
  • Action levels
• Exposure assessment and monitoring.
