Book Guidelines for personal protection when handling and applying pesticides

Download or read book Guidelines for personal protection when handling and applying pesticides written by Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations and published by Food & Agriculture Org.. This book was released on 2020-01-30 with total page 75 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These guidelines are intended to provide guidance on pesticide risk reduction through reduced exposure by effective personal protection with special attention to the use of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE). First, they provide technical information on personal protection and on the selection and use of PPE. Second, in line with the FAO/WHO International Code of Conduct on Pesticide Management, they address policy issues and recommend measures to improve personal protection and specifically the use and availability of adequate quality and affordable PPE. They are primarily aimed at government authorities in charge of pesticide management and risk reduction, but are also considered useful to public and private sectors such as pesticide industry, non-governmental organisations (NGO) and other relevant entities. More specifically, these guidelines are targeted at stakeholders in low and middle income countries (LMICs) where it is acknowledged that there is limited legislation, compliance and enforcement, and PPE availability. These Guidelines were developed by the FAO/WHO Joint Meeting on Pesticide Management (JMPM) to provide guidance on provisions in the Code of Conduct on Pesticide Management that are related to personal protection of pesticide users. They are meant to enhance current national legislation and regulations on personal protection and personal protective equipment (PPE) or where there is none, to provide guidance. They reflect the FAO/WHO joint approach on pesticide management, thus addressing personal protection of both agricultural and public health operators/applicators, the latter being engaged in using insecticides for vector control.

Book Factors Influencing Design of Protective Clothing for Pesticide Application

Download or read book Factors Influencing Design of Protective Clothing for Pesticide Application written by AJ. Fraser and published by . This book was released on 1988 with total page 8 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Use of protective clothing while applying pesticides to crops is considered a deterrent to dermal exposure. A design for a protective garment and hood for fruit orchard workers was developed at Utah State University. The prototype was manufactured in Gore-Tex, Saranex-laminated Tyvek, and an experimental composite structure. Workers wore all garments and personal work clothing in a field setting. After wearing the prototype on the job for an average 2-h period, fruit orchard workers evaluated the garment for functional designing qualities, sizing, and styling features. The protective suit was favorably rated. The hood design was found to be inadequate. Specifications for the garment needed length adjustment in the sleeve area and additional ease through shoulders. The hood design needs complete revision. The prototype evaluation suggested that desirable styling features and appropriate sizing characteristics definitely increase wearability potential of protective garments.

Book Engineering Controls and Protective Clothing in the Reduction of Pesticide Exposure to Tractor Drivers

Download or read book Engineering Controls and Protective Clothing in the Reduction of Pesticide Exposure to Tractor Drivers written by C. Lunchick and published by . This book was released on 1988 with total page 6 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reduction of exposure received during occupational use of pesticides is one of the principal strategies available to the Environmental Protection Agency in reducing risk. The Exposure Assessment Branch of the Office of Pesticide Programs has evaluated applicator exposure studies in which pesticides were applied by ground boom or airblast spray methods. The dermal exposure to the applicator in an enclosed tractor cab during ground boom application was estimated to be one-sixth the exposure to the applicator conducting similar operations with an open tractor cab. During airblast applications, exposure to applicators in enclosed vehicles was more than thirtyfold less than to airblast applicators in open vehicles. At present, the major emphasis in reducing applicator exposure to pesticides has been to require the use of protective clothing. Surveys of applicators indicate that they frequently do not use the required protective equipment. The use of engineering controls such as enclosed vehicles is another risk-reduction strategy available to the Agency. This paper reviews the effects on exposure by tractor-cab design and the advantages and disadvantages of protective clothing and engineering controls in reducing total pesticide applicator exposure.
