This course is designed to educate workers on the dangers of crystalline silica, a common mineral present in construction materials. Participants will learn about the specific materials that contain crystalline silica, such as sand, stone, concrete, brick, and mortar. The course emphasizes the health risks associated with inhaling respirable crystalline silica particles, which can lead to the incurable lung disease silicosis. Additionally, it highlights early signs of silicosis, advanced symptoms, and the potential for other serious diseases resulting from silica exposure. Understand the materials containing crystalline silica and the activities that can generate respirable silica particles. Recognize the health risks associated with inhaling crystalline silica, focusing on the development and symptoms of silicosis. Learn about the long-term consequences of silica exposure, including its potential to lead to other serious diseases like lung cancer, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and kidney disease.
