Assessing the risk arising from optical radiation emitted by stage spotlights C.4/1.018/P2015-146 | 2016

Stage spotlights used in the entertainment industry emit optical radiation potentially harmful for the health of exposed workers. Therefore a study was carried out at INRS to help entertainment workers for assessing these risks.
This study…
CatRayon 3: Software for hazard assessment and protective measures for occupational exposure to optical radiation C.4/1.010/4635/NS265 | 2007

People are often occupationally exposed to optical radiation emitted by several sources with different properties. A first software, CatRayon, enabled assessing hazards generated by one source at a workstation in a user-defined configuration…
Exposure to the scenic lighting devices: risk for the health of the entertainment professionals C.4/1.016/P2012-196 | 2013

The European directive 2006/25/EC on minimum health and safety requirements regarding the exposure of workers to the risks arising from the optical radiation provides for risk assessment at workplaces. This is particularly important in entertainment…
Measurement of incoherent artificial optical radiation in the workplace C.4/1.018/P2015-145 | 2016

Some situations require exposure measurements, but carrying out measurements is complicated. This paper gives two available methods as well as their advantages and disadvantages.
Means of protection against risks arising from lighting DEL NOETUDE/P2015-129 | 2016

The verification of the manufacture and maintenance of lighting DEL require a visual control while they are in operation. Their luminance is very high, operators must be protected during this observation. INRS has conducted a study on the adequacy…
The means of prevention and protection against the artificial optical radiation NOETUDE/P2015-135 | 2016

In the presence of dangerous artificial optical radiation for the workers, it is necessary to implement means of prevention or protection. On the basis of general principles of prevention specified in the regulation, this article reviews various…
Assessing optical radiation hazards without in situ measurements C.4/1.018/P2015-138 | 2016

Occupational exposure to artificial optical radiations (AOR) may be appraised without requiring in situ measurements.
A three-steps method identifies harmless occupational situations from workplace description and providers data and…
Preventing hazards due to LED lighting in industry. NOETUDE/P2016-039 | 2016

The 7 March 2008 labor code revision is based on 83-721 and 83-722 2 of 2 august 1983 decrees. It introduces lighting requirements to be reached by occupational lighting (rooms, traffic, stairs, stores and so on) under the employer responsibility…
Measuring and evaluating occupational exposure to artificial optical radiation (except laser). Methodological guide. C.4/1.018/P2016-107/NS347 | 2016

Exposure to artificial optical radiation (AOR) may be harmful to the health of workers. But AOR sources data are not always available or sufficient for a prior risk assessment. So measurements at the workplace are required. Difficulties for measuring…
