extremely important in preventing contact with
various metals and acids. The minimum
protective equipment should include gloves,
aprons, boots, and chemical handlers' goggles.
Aprons should come below the top of the boots.

machines and the noise in
these factories is overwhelming.

suffer hearing loss from the loud
noise.

 Throughout much of the world, bricks are made by hand. Even a
small brick factory may produce as many as 500,000 bricks per
year. Each brick weighs between one and two kilograms (2.2-4.4
pounds). A small child may haul over 1,000 bricks on his/her head
or back each day.

stones are broken
by hand. Because

of dust, the work is
quite dangerous.
Workers are at extreme risk of developing
silicosis (scarring of the lungs) and a
related disease,
silico-tuberculosis.
