This service uses a Casella Microdust Pro real-time dust monitor to provide clients with an indicative understanding of where and when dust is being generated in woodworking workshops or wood machining areas. It can assist clients in checking the effectiveness of control measures and help identify within individual tasks or processes where higher peaks of dust emissions may require secondary investigation or action.

This service is a beneficial addition to the workplace management toolbox, aiding in understanding where additional improvements may be gained. However, it should not be viewed as a substitute for personal workplace dust exposure monitoring, which will provide a more accurate recording of an employee’s daily exposure against the current workplace exposure limits for wood dust
