Description

Some of the most common construction and manufacturing jobs can create high levels of hazardous dust. The more hazardous the dust, the more important it is not to be breathed in.

There are different ways of eliminating or minimising dust exposure to workers and other people in the workplace.

Using an industrial vacuum cleaner to vacuum up dust once it has settled one of the control measures that can be used. This prevents the accumulation of hazardous dust.

When using an industrial vacuum, there are certain hazards that need to be considered.

  • If used to clean up material it is not designed for, it will damage the vacuum.
  • Vacuum operated with the wrong filter.
  • People changing the filter, not being aware of the type of filter that is required.
  • Etc.
