At breaks, and the end of the day, and whenever you know you have been exposed to
binder dust, wash your hands, arms and face (or any affected area) thoroughly and ap-
ply moisturizer as required.
If binder dust or wet hempcrete gets on your clothes, brush it off straight away, and
wear fresh clothes every day.
Although mixed hempcrete is less prone to flying about in the air than binder dust, re-
member that small particles can get blown around in windy conditions. When tipping
hempcrete into the shuttering on scaffolding, be aware of people working below you.
When handling tubs of fresh hempcrete, take care to avoid spillages, and don't leave
full tubs standing around where they may accidentally get kicked or people may trip
over them.
Sweep up any mix dropped during placing straight away, especially on shuttering,
where, if left, it can fall on people or blow around. Mix dropped on scaffolding boards
is, in any case, usually clean enough to be placed into the shuttering or chucked back
into the next mix.
