In one such study, it was reported that out of 150 SDS, only 37 percent were found to have accurate health effects data and only 47 percent were accurate regarding personal protective equipment or correct occupational exposure limits.

COSHH Monitoring Services

Every year, thousands of workers are made ill by hazardous substances, contracting lung disease such as asthma, cancer and skin disease such as dermatitis. These diseases cost many millions of pounds each year to industry, society and individuals. As an employer, you are responsible for taking effective measures to control exposure and protect health.

LEV Testing Services

The COSHH Regulations require employers to prevent or control exposure to hazardous substances by their employees and people affected by their activities. Since inhalation is the most significant route of exposure to hazardous substances, it follows that Local Exhaust Ventilation (LEV) becomes a useful measure to control and capture these substances as they are released into the atmosphere within the workplace. ESL provides full testing of all LEV systems such as mobile and fixed hoods, fume cupboards, DCE equipment, spray booths and their annual maintenance can be done. ESL Engineers can design LEV systems to suit your specific needs and in compliance with HSG 258 and COSHH.
