Safe Lead Hazard Control Practices

Safe lead hazard control practices involve identifying and safely managing areas with lead-based paint, especially during renovations or repairs. This includes conducting thorough risk assessments, containing or isolating contaminated areas, using proper protective equipment for workers, and following regulated removal or stabilization methods to prevent lead dust and debris from spreading. Proper cleanup and disposal are essential to protect occupants and workers from lead poisoning. These practices help reduce exposure, especially in older buildings, ensuring the safety of residents and workers while complying with health regulations.
