(_c_) Above the pots for melting lead or its alloys, in the other industries enumerated in Section 1. 3. All work with oxides and other compounds of lead capable of producing dust shall be done as far as possible when in a damp condition. When this work cannot be done in the presence of water or other liquid, it shall be carried out by mechanical means, in covered air-tight apparatus. If it is impossible to conform to the requirements of either of the first two paragraphs of this section, the work shall be done under a strong draught so arranged that the harmful products may be intercepted by apparatus suitably placed. Finally, if none of these systems is possible the workmen shall be supplied with respirators. 4. Oxides and other compounds of lead, whether dry or damp, in suspension or solution, shall not be handled with the bare hand. The employer shall at his own expense provide the workers in these operations with either gloves made of impervious material such as indiarubber, or suitable appliances, and shall cause them to be kept in good repair and frequently cleaned. 5. Tables on which these products are handled shall be covered with some impervious material, kept in a perfectly water-tight condition. The same requirement applies to the floors of the workrooms, which shall also be kept damp. The floor shall be slightly sloped towards a water-tight receptacle for collecting the lead substances which are washed down. The work shall be so arranged that there shall be no splashing. The tables, floors and walls shall be washed at least once a week. 6. Without prejudice to the requirements of section 3, the grinding and mixing of lead products, and the use of them in dusting shall be effected in special places with active ventilation. If the materials cannot be damped, the workers shall be provided with respirators. 7. Pottery shall not be dipped with bare hands in solutions containing litharge, red lead, galena or white lead in suspension. 8. No food or drink shall be brought into the works. 9. Employers shall, at their own expense, provide and maintain for the use of the workers, overalls or clothing for use during work only, in addition to gloves and respirators. 10. In a part of the building separated from the workrooms, there shall be provided for the use of the workers exposed to lead dust or fumes, a cloak room and lavatory kept in good order, provided with basins or taps in sufficient number, a plentiful supply of water, soap and a towel for each worker replaced at least once a week. The cloak rooms shall be provided with cupboards or drawers with locks or padlocks, the ordinary clothing being kept apart from the working clothes.
