Polyester HS&E

After visiting a company yesterday and seeing some HS&E worries shall we say, I am trying to find up to date EU legislation for workers exposed to MEKP and Polyester resins. I know if I was working in that environment what I would be using, but that’s not the point - just trying to find exact rules that should be complied with.

Seems to be some useful guidelines here:

but im trying to get exact rules for exposure to laminating without masks, etc.

any help appreciated, thanks
