These include brick and tile manufacturers, foundries and stoneworkers. Over time, exposure to silica particles can harm a worker's ability to breathe and cause irreversible, often fatal, lung disease. Employers have a legal duty to put in place suitable arrangements to manage health and safety and ensure they comply with the Control of Substances Hazardous to Health Regulations 2002 (COSHH). Inspectors will be checking that dutyholders: - know the risks associated with breathing in respirable crystalline silica
- have effective controls in place to keep workers safe and protect their respiratory health
View our refreshed silica guidance for manufacturing and foundries to ensure you are protecting your workers' health:  Many people are exposed to noise levels at work that may be harmful, leading to permanent and incurable hearing damage.
