Management of airborne risks is gaining increasing awareness with businesses in New Zealand. With this has comes a growth in the implementation of controls to reduce the ongoing exposure to workers. Minimising airborne exposure at the source through engineering controls is a very effective way to protect workers and Local Exhaust Ventilation (LEV) is a common engineering control.
