Personal Protection

To ensure that personnel are adequately protected from the exposure of CNI hazards RPE & PPE should be used:

  • Respiratory protection is required where the exposure limit may be exceeded (TWA or STEL)

  • Filter respirators using an organic type filter are acceptable according to local use limits

  • Air-supplied equipment will be required for higher concentrations or for activities where there will be a shortage of oxygen

  • Chemical resistant gloves made of neoprene or nitrile rubber will give protection where there is a risk of contact

  • It is good practice to wear eye protection when working with liquid chemicals

  • To protect the body where there is a risk of liquid splashing use chemical protective clothing.  

Note: Contaminated clothing, especially absorbent materials (fabric, leather etc.) will release vapours long after they are contaminated.
