Construction Dust - Much morethan a nuisance!

Do you think that construction dust is just a nuisance?

It is, in fact, a serious risk to construction workers.

Regularly breathing even small amounts of dust

over a long time can cause serious lung diseases,

including cancer. Common jobs like cutting or grinding

concrete, chasing out mortar, drilling in enclosed

spaces or sanding wood/MDF can be high risk if not

properly controlled.

This half day event and exhibition is aimed at

managers, supervisors and operatives. It aims to

raise awareness of the health problems caused by

construction dust and the simple steps you should

take to control it. Sessions and demonstrations

include on-tool extraction, water suppression,

respiratory protective equipment (RPE) and

management controls.

Our keynote speaker, Chris Lucas, is in

charge of co-ordinating HSE’s activity on

construction dust. He has widely engaged

with the industry on this issue and will be

providing the very latest information.
