High-Yield Explanation
The former OSHA Permissible Exposure Limit for all forms of inorganic nickel (as Ni) was 1 mg/m3 TWA. Based on the ACGIH recommendation, OSHA proposed revising this limit to 0.1 mg/m3 TWA; this limit is established in the final rule. NIOSH recommends that exposure to any form of inorganic nickel be maintained at or below 0.015 mg/m3.
