actually looking in the work place. We have several issues regarding indoor air quality and some of these issues came directly from our practicing members. Evaluation of the actual guidelines for indoor air quality, specifically those internal environment that are depending on air conditioning. We have an issue with the electricity here in Puerto Rico and when we don’t have electricity, most of our systems just go down. Evaluation of the indoor air quality guidelines for spaces specifically in tropical weather that depend on air conditioning. We need--we believe we need action for 168 contaminants measuring technologies and control interventions. Action leadings like some allergens that cause ocupational asma. Action limits that--pest control chemicals under using indoor air that are dependant on air conditioning. So, in terms of sectors dealing with the service sectors, we need specific information identification of--monitoring technologies for
chemical exposures. Specifically in the small business that deals with forensics, anatomy 169 laboratories and morgues. Refrigerant exposure to air conditioning technicians, employees exposures in weight disposal tasks, as well as water treatment plants. The ever standing, CTD and back injuries in the FedEx, UPS and DHL Delivery type of services. Within the communication in these sectors and the identification of exposure limits among employees working in the radio towers. Within the construction sector, skin exposure for dry wall sealing in construction, engineering control for solvent usage and handling of wood dust in carpentry. Exposure in the construction industry in general. In the manufacturing and the refinery sector, metal dust exposure in cleaning a boilers, handling carcinogens in a chemical bulk plant. Exposure to different chemicals in refineries, on small business sector and retail sectors. Exposure we should meant to aromatic candles and aerosols in work places. Quimical exposure in hair and nail polish in parlors.
