Article R4534-47 of the French Labour Code

When a gallery is drilled or a shaft is sunk in rock containing free silica, only water-injected foils or foils fitted with an effective dry dust collection device are used.
Instructions indicate the workstations where it is necessary to reinforce collective protection measures through the use of appropriate respiratory equipment. This instruction also specifies, for each workstation, the maximum duration for which the apparatus must be worn and the conditions under which it must be maintained.

Article R4534-47


Lorsqu’une galerie est percée ou lorsqu’un puits est foncé dans une roche renfermant de la silice libre, seuls des fleurets à injection d’eau ou munis d’un dispositif efficace pour le captage à sec des poussières sont utilisés.
Une consigne indique les postes de travail où il est nécessaire de renforcer les mesures de protection collective par l’utilisation d’un appareil respiratoire approprié. Cette consigne précise, en outre, pour chaque poste de travail, la durée maximale de port de l’appareil et les conditions de son entretien.
