Modeling the Effect of the 2018 Revised ACGIH ® Hand Activity Threshold Limit Value ® (TLV) at Reducing Risk for Carpal Tunnel Syndrome

Journal of Occupational and Environmental Hygiene, 2019
Recent studies have shown the 2001 American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists (ACGIH®) Threshold Limit Value (TLV®) for Hand Activity was not sufficiently protective for workers at risk of carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS). These studies led to

Binding occupational exposure limits for carcinogens in the EU – good or bad?

Scandinavian Journal of Work, Environment & Health, 2019
The European Union (EU) has increased its efforts to counteract cancer due to occupational exposure. This is done by several means, including more active use and revision of the Carcinogen Directive (1), launch of the Roadmap on Carcinogens (2) and the ...
