1. Assessing the lighting risk of incoherent sources
1.1 Means and preventive measures
According to decree no. 2010-750, the following measures and means of protection must be applied:
implement alternative work processes with no or reduced exposure to ROAI (Incoherent Artificial Optical Radiation), with a choice of suitable work equipment in line with this philosophy;
limit the duration and intensity of exposure;
impose a safe distance between the worker and the equipment emitting radiation;
inform and report the risk, train workers ;
create a totally safe or safer environment (whether enclosed or not) by means of protection and add the collective protective...
