The US Occupational Safety and Health Administration (US OSHA) recently announced a new National Emphasis Program (NEP) related to occupational exposure to isocyanates. This Isocyantes NEP is described as a program that “combines enforcement and outreach efforts to raise awareness among employers, workers, and safety and health professionals of the serious health effects associated with occupational exposures to isocyanates.” US OSHA will focus on exposure through the skin, inhalation, and other routes.
