CHEMPYŁ DATABASE – a source of information on chemical risks in the working environment

Journal Title: CHEMIK nauka-technika-rynek - Year 2012, Vol 66, Issue 9

Abstract

The ChemPył chemical and dust risk knowledge base has been developed in the Department of Chemical, Dust and Biological Risks of the Central Institute for Labour Protection – National Research Institute (CIOP-PIB). The purpose of the base is to create a useful tool for assisting the assessment of exposure and occupational risk caused by chemical and dust agents in working environments, both for work health and safety management specialists in enterprises and for employers and employees of the enterprises. The ChemPył base, available at the CIOP-PIB website, gathers the most useful materials regarding exposure to chemical agents and dust in the occupational environment. A set of information on chemical substances with established hygienic standards, methods for measuring them at workplaces, and their physical and chemical, as well as toxicological properties or first aid information has been prepared there. A new item of the base includes also a set of practical information on occupational exposure to harmful substances, the results of qualitative and quantitative tests for the selected instances of workplaces or in selected technological processes from various economic sectors and the assessment of related occupational risk, the so-called “Database of risk assessment and test results”.
