Advance Notice of Proposed Rule Making (ANPRM)—Blood Lead Level for Medical Removal
Department of Labor — observed across 2 documents over 51 days. Use the source documents below before deciding whether this affects your business.
In plain English
The Labor Department is proposing updated rules that will require workers exposed to lead to be removed from lead-handling jobs sooner if their blood-lead tests show concerning levels. If you run a construction, manufacturing, battery, or other lead-related business, watch for stricter medical testing requirements and prepare to rotate workers away from lead exposure more often.
