    June 19, 2020 Mr. Joe Bhatia President and CEO American National Standards Institute 1899 L Street, NW, 11th Fl. Washington, DC 20036 Dear Mr. Bhatia, The U.S. Council for International Business (USCIB) writes to strongly encourage ANSI to reject the AFNOR proposal to revise ISO 26000, develop one or more implementation guidelines or standards and create a new Technical Committee (TC) on Social Responsibility. Our concerns echo those expressed in statements to ISO from the International Labor Organization (ILO) Secretary-General Guy Ryder (Annex 1), the International Labor Office (Annex 2), and the joint statement from the International Organization of Employers (IOE) and the International Trade Union Confederation (ITUC) (Annex 3). Further development of the AFNOR proposal would break hard-won consensus and jeopardize the impact of ISO 26000; require unnecessary output of resources among stakeholders that would be better used for implementation and innovation in the field of social responsibility; and create divergence with authoritative international standards. ISO 26000 has provided companies of all sizes valuable guidance on the underlying principles of social responsibility. The scope of subject-matter within ISO 26000, and that it is not intended or appropriate for certification purposes or for regulatory or contractual use, were carefully and painstakingly negotiated features of the guidance. Re-starting a years-long and bureaucratic process to revise ISO 26000 would damage its impact by reversing the consensus reached in its initial drafting. In particular, establishing a TC would enable a proliferation of standards with provisions that may not be appropriate for businesses, nor useful for advancing human rights.

  • Testing of High Flow Rate Respirable Samplers to Assess the Technical Feasibility of Measuring 0.05 Mg.M-3 Respirable Crystalline Silica
    Health and Safety Executive Testing of high flow rate respirable samplers to assess the technical feasibility of measuring 0.05 mg.m-3 respirable crystalline silica Prepared by the Health and Safety Laboratory for the Health and Safety Executive 2010 RR825 Research Report Health and Safety Executive Testing of high flow rate respirable samplers to assess the technical feasibility of measuring 0.05 mg.m-3 respirable crystalline silica Peter Stacey and Andrew Thorpe Health and Safety Laboratory Harpur Hill Buxton Derbyshire SK17 9JN Testing of high flow rate samplers to assess the technical feasibility of measuring 0.05 mg.m-3 respirable crystalline silica. This report describes testing of five personal respirable dust samplers operating with flow rates of 4 l/min or greater, available in 2008. Three were commercially available, one a prototype and one adapted at HSL to operate at a higher flow rate. Testing compared these samplers with a reference sampler, operating at 2.2 l/min, to ascertain if an increase in the mass of dust sampled could improve the reliability of measurements of respirable crystalline silica (RCS). None of the samplers satisfied all of the success criteria for the project, which included, the ability to maintain the specified flow rate over 4-hours, ease of use in the workplace, and an improvement in the measurement precision without additional complications caused by the increased mass of sampled dust. Infrared analysis is not recommended for samples with dust mixtures, because it was difficult to obtain a reliable result when the loading exceeds 1 mg. The samplers with the best performance were the PGP10 and the modified GK2.69 samplers.

  • A Review of Fiber Size Toxicity
    Boulanger et al. Environmental Health 2014, 13:59 http://www.ehjournal.net/content/13/1/59 REVIEW Open Access Quantification of short and long asbestos fibers to assess asbestos exposure: a review of fiber size toxicity Guillaume Boulanger1, Pascal Andujar2,3,4, Jean-Claude Pairon2,3,4, Marie-Annick Billon-Galland5, Chantal Dion6,7, Pascal Dumortier8, Patrick Brochard9, Annie Sobaszek10,11, Pierre Bartsch12, Christophe Paris13,14 and Marie-Claude Jaurand15,16* Abstract The fibrogenicity and carcinogenicity of asbestos fibers are dependent on several fiber parameters including fiber dimensions. Based on the WHO (World Health Organization) definition, the current regulations focalise on long asbestos fibers (LAF) (Length: L ≥ 5 μm, Diameter: D < 3 μm and L/D ratio > 3). However air samples contain short asbestos fibers (SAF) (L < 5 μm). In a recent study we found that several air samples collected in buildings with asbestos containing materials (ACM) were composed only of SAF, sometimes in a concentration of ≥10 fibers.L−1.This exhaustive review focuses on available information from peer-review publications on the size-dependent pathogenetic effects of asbestos fibers reported in experimental in vivo and in vitro studies. In the literature, the findings that SAF are less pathogenic than LAF are based on experiments where a cut-off of 5 μm was generally made to differentiate short from long asbestos fibers. Nevertheless, the value of 5 μm as the limit for length is not based on scientific evidence, but is a limit for comparative analyses. From this review, it is clear that the pathogenicity of SAF cannot be completely ruled out, especially in high exposure situations.

This publication does not alter or determine compliance responsibilities which are set forth in OSHA standards, and the Occupational Safety and Health Act. Moreover, because interpretations and enforcement policy may change over time, for additional guidance on OSHA compliance requirements, the reader should consult current administrative interpretations and decisions by the Occupational Safety and Health Review Commission and the courts. This guidance document is not a standard or regulation, and it creates no new legal obligations. It contains recommendations as well as descriptions of mandatory safety and health standards. The recommendations are advisory in nature, informational in content, and are intended to assist employers in providing a safe and healthful workplace. The Occupational Safety and Health Act requires employers to comply with safety and health standards and regulations promulgated by OSHA or by a state with an OSHA-approved state plan.
