What are the Preventive Measures for Reducing Ethylene Oxide Exposure?
Preventive measures to reduce EO exposure include engineering controls, administrative controls, and personal protective equipment (PPE). Engineering controls can include ventilation systems and closed processing systems to limit EO release. Administrative controls involve implementing policies and procedures to minimize exposure, such as job rotation and exposure time limits. PPE, such as respirators, can also provide an additional layer of protection for workers.
