Dry cleaning shops are subject to regulations governing environmental protection due to the extensive use of organic solvents which can be toxic, flammable, explosive and harmful to the environment. The law regulates permissible exposure limits (PEL) of solvent vapour in the area for persons exposed during full working hours. Protocols for handling chemicals, keeping the register, monitoring the emissions and waste disposal are prescribed as well. Regular periodic training enables workers to acquire the necessary knowledge of the harmful effects of chemicals on the human body, reducing potential risks of adverse consequences caused by unprofessional handling of harmful chemicals.
