ACGIH® TLV®
ACGIH® TLV® stands for the American Conference of Governmental and Industrial Hygienists' Threshold Limit Values. These are guidelines that suggest safe exposure levels to various chemicals and physical agents in the workplace. TLVs aim to protect workers' health by indicating the maximum allowable concentration of a substance in the air over a typical workday. They are based on scientific research and help employers set safety standards, ensuring that exposure does not lead to adverse health effects. TLVs are not legal limits but are widely respected in occupational health and safety practices.
