Paragraph 2: Occupational exposure limit value

The average concentration of asbestos fibres over eight hours’ work does not exceed ten fibres per litre. It is monitored in the air inhaled by the worker.

The employer must ensure compliance with the occupational exposure limit value for all exposed workers, taking into account the risk assessment.

The conditions and results of inspections are communicated by the employer to the company doctor and to the social and economic committee. They are kept at the disposal of the Labour Inspectorate control officer, the Labour Inspectorate control officer doctor and the agents of the prevention departments of the relevant social security bodies.
