CARBON MONOXIDE

• SOURCES OF CARBON MONOXIDE IN THE WORKPLACE...
  
  Carbon monoxide is a colorless, odorless gas produced by all internal combustion engines, including diesel and propane-powered engines. It is also produced by burning wood, paper, or plastic products and from welding when carbon dioxide shielding gas is used.
  
  Workers can be exposed to carbon monoxide in warehouses and where propane-powered forklifts are operated. Exposure can also occur when operating equipment with small gasoline engines, such as pressure washers, concrete cutters, water pumps, air compressors, and generators at construction sites. CO is also produced from kerosene space heaters (salamanders), natural gas cooking units, and floor polishers. Outdoor use of any of this equipment is not usually hazardous but in buildings or enclosed spaces, carbon mononxide can quickly build up to dangerous and even deadly amounts.
  
  At lower levels, people sometimes mistake the symptoms of CO for the flu, or do not associate their severe headache and nausea with carbon monoxide exposure.
  
  People with heart or lung conditions or other health problems can be more sensitive to the effects of carbon monoxide.
