The Council common position lays down exposure limit values on the basis of the biological health effects. The possible long-term adverse effects of exposure are not being taken into account, because the scientific data are not beyond challenge.
The common position also sets action values, measurable parameters which, if observed, will ensure that exposure limit values are not exceeded. In addition, it sets out preventive measures to reduce the risks to which workers are exposed. These rest primarily on the obligation incumbent on employers to determine and assess risks. The common position likewise makes provision for workers to be informed and trained.
On the whole the common position allows for the main aims and for a number of amendments adopted by Parliament at first reading, while some aspects fall short of what is required.
The rapporteur therefore considers that it would be desirable to reinstate the right to a medical examination in the event of overexposure and to strengthen the prevention system set up by the directive. This directive must also contain a provision relating to the penalties to be enforced under national legislation pursuant to the directive."@en1
