This module deals with the risks associated with the presence of bitumen in road coatings, asphalts and other waterproof coatings, which can affect the health of exposed workers. These dangers include symptoms such as coughing, headaches and trouble sleeping. To prevent these risks in activities involving bitumen, measures are recommended, such as reducing coating application temperatures or using machines equipped with smoke capture systems.

This module covers cutting fluids used in the metallurgy and automotive industries. These fluids contain chemicals that can cause skin or respiratory problems. Risk prevention is based on the selection of the least dangerous products as well as the implementation of collective protection measures, which can be reinforced by the wearing of personal protective equipment.

This module offers training on the risks associated with Meopa (equimolar mixture of oxygen and nitrous oxide) which is a medication subject to medical prescription, administered by inhalation, used to relieve patients’ pain or help them manage their pain. anxiety during short-term care procedures. Although beneficial for patients, this treatment can pose health risks to caregivers. It is therefore essential that all services using Meopa put in place preventive measures to avoid inhalation of this gas by healthcare staff.

This module deals with additive manufacturing (or 3D printing), which is booming in the industry, which consists of manufacturing objects by adding material in successive layers. This process can expose employees to various risks related to handling, optical radiation and the use of electrical equipment. However, most of this file is devoted to chemical risk, which is more specific to this technology.

This module offers training in the sectors of activity most exposed to lead, in particular those of construction, industry and crafts. This module offers training in the sectors of activity most exposed to lead, in particular those of construction, industry and crafts. Additionally, lead and its compounds are classified as reproductive toxicants. Prevention measures aim to reduce worker exposure to lead to the lowest level technically possible.

Work likely to expose employees to the inhalation of crystalline silica dust is present in the majority of manufacturing and construction industries. However, the health effects of this mineral can be particularly serious and disabling (notably silicosis and lung cancer). It is therefore appropriate to reduce occupational exposure to crystalline silica to the lowest possible level. This module on the risks associated with crystalline silica dust concludes the training on dust risks. It complements general prevention and wood dust.

Exposure to sensitizing agents can cause occupational allergies, whether skin or respiratory. These conditions frequently require job adjustments, reclassification, or career redirection for affected workers. It is therefore essential to prevent these situations. In this module, you will discover the risks associated with exposure to sensitizing agents.
