Some examples of these chemicals are:
•
Lead from lead-based paints.
•
Crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry

•
Arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber.
Your risk from these exposures vary, depending on how often you
do this type of work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals:
work in a well venti lated area and work with approved safety
equipment. Always wear OSHA/NIOSH approved, properly fitting
face mask or respirator when using such tools.
