METALLEAD
Lead, a bluish-gray metal, is malleable, ductile, and resistant to sulfuric acid, with a melting point of 327 ºC. Commonly used in the manufacture of accumulators and in Pb and Zn metallurgy, lead exposure primarily affects the central and peripheral nervous systems, bone marrow, gonads, and kidneys.

Control
a) Evaluation of the work environment and correction of deficiencies that condition the
exposure to the contaminant.
b) Worker education on hygiene and personal protection standards
c) Quarterly control until normalization of the values.
Sequence of signs and symptoms associated with lead toxicity:
Mild toxicity from lead exposure can cause:
• slight fatigue
• irritability
• lethargy
• occasional abdominal discomfort
