Lincoln Electric has released a new Arc Welding Safety CD and Brochure featuring industry and product news, including the New OSHA Hexavalent Chromium Standards and OSHA’s Small Entity Compliance for Hexavalent Chromium Standard. The new standard lowers OSHA’s permissible exposure limit (PEL) for hexavalent chromium, and for all Cr(VI) compounds, to five micrograms of Cr(VI) per cubic meter of air as an eight-hour time-weighted average. The new PEL is one-tenth of the old PEL. The new standard requires industries to control worker exposures to Cr(VI) so the new PEL is not exceeded. To request your free copy, please visit our site
