Health effects associated with work with chemicals
• Oil mist/vapor: short term – irritation of the upper respiratory tract, headache, dizziness, nausea and drowsiness. Long term: lung fibrosis and increased risk of cancer (leukemia).
• Paint – organic solvents: short term – irritation of upper respiratory tract and eyes, dizziness, fatigue, headache and nausea. Long term: damage to the brain (nervous system), reduced memory and concentration, eczema, reduced fertility.
• Dust : short term - irritation of upper respiratory tract and mucosa. Long term: allergi, respiratory diseases and increased risk of cancer.
• These health effects are incurable!

What type of mask should we use?
• Oil mist/oil vapor: half mask with combination filter (A/P2)• Dust: P2 filter protects against harmless dust , P3 filter is to be
used when the dust contains or can contain poisonous or very poisonous particles, cancerous substances, radioactive particles, bacteria or virus.
• Solvents: filtermask with filter A (brown). For solvents with a boiling point lower than 65 0 C, an AX filter must be used.
• Use the PPE specified in the MSDS sheet, even if the exposure time is short!

Changing of filters
• Filters need to be kept in closed compartments when not in use.• Change filters every offshore trip as a minimum with normal work
• Are these routines working with us? Your future health is at stake!
