Silicosis hazard is a property of the working environment that poses a threat of silicosis in workers associated with a high content of dust containing silicon dioxide in the air of the work area.
Silicosis is an occupational disease caused by prolonged inhalation of dust containing silicon. It can occur in workers in industries where silicon materials are used, for example, in the production of glass, ceramics, cement, brick, rubber and other products.
In order to prevent the occurrence of silicosis, certain precautions must be taken. First of all, workers must be familiar with safety rules at work. It is also necessary to regularly monitor the level of dust in the air of the work area, use special respirators and protective suits.
In addition, it is important to conduct regular medical examinations of workers who may be exposed to silica-containing dust. This will allow you to identify possible symptoms of the disease in the early stages and take appropriate measures.
In general, silica hazard is a serious problem for many industries. Therefore, it is important to take measures to prevent the occurrence of this disease and ensure the safety of workers.
Introduction
Silica-hazardous work is work associated with work in conditions where there may be a threat to the health of workers due to exposure to dust containing free silicon dioxide (SiO2). Such work can only be performed under special conditions using protective equipment and preventive measures. To prevent the harmful effects of dust on the health of workers, it is necessary to use special methods and means of protecting workers.
In this article we will look at the concept of silica-hazardous work and its impact on human health. We will also look at methods and means of protecting against the harmful effects of such dusts.
Definition of silica hazardous work
First, let’s find out what silica-hazardous work is. **Silicon paste** is the ability of the industrial atmosphere to endanger the health of a worker, as well as the possibility of developing a disease called “silicosis”. This type of disease is caused by a significant accumulation of dust particles in the working atmosphere area, which contain free silicon dioxide.
Since these results may be hazardous to human health, it is necessary to inspect the work area. Employees are required to comply with all safety standards and regulations. It is important to create ergonomic working conditions to avoid the need to remain in an uncomfortable position for a long time. It is also necessary to observe a work and rest schedule, since fatigue can affect the quality of work, and fatigue itself also
