which can cause cancer, birth defects or other genetic damages. Some examples of these
substances are:
 Lead derived from paints containing lead;
 Arsenic and chrome from chemically treated wood.
 The hazard to your health from such exposures is dependent on how frequently you do this
kind of work.
 Measures for reducing your exposure to such chemicals: Always work in well-ventilated
surroundings and with certified safety equipment, such as dust masks that have been
specially designed for filtering out microscopic particles.
 For sawing operations, connect the equipment to a dust exhaust system.
