Propylene glycol (1,2-Propanediol); Health-based recommended occupational exposure limit

At the request of the Minister of Social Affairs and Employment, the Health Council of the Netherlands recommends health-based occupational exposure limits for the concentration of toxic substances in the air in the workplace. These recommendations are made by the Council’s Dutch Expert Committee on Occupational Standards (DECOS).
In this report, the committee discusses the consequences of occupational exposure to propylene glycol and recommends a health-based occupational exposure limit. The committee’s conclusions are made on scientific papers published before September 2006.
