Part I: Foreach of the chemical hazards answer the following:
Compare yourcalculated exposures in Unit IV to one of the occupational exposure limits(OELs) in the table.
Does thecalculated exposure exceed the OEL you chose?
Discuss whyyou chose the OELs you used.
Provide youropinion as to whether the risk associated with each exposure is an acceptablelevel of risk.
Part II:Analyze the table below, and then answer the associated questions.
