All samples were collected on the person of the employee and each of them represents a peak exposure for the various work tasks. All work was involved with asbestos containing KA.TLO block materials.
The problem area most deserving corrective measures is obviously the dumping procedure of the shop dust collecting facility. Excessive exposures are encountered in the handling, especially packing, of sawed block material.
Exposure values have not been reported to the employees nor to shop supervision.
Very truly yours
