Often the risk from health hazards present in the workplace is not readily apparent, recognised or understood. This can cause serious ill-health over the longer term from repeated relatively low levels of exposure if appropriate controls have not been applied.

Thanks for raising awareness about the flour dust hazard. Most people don't realize that flour is a "chemical hazard" - both as an inhaled hazard and a dust explosion hazard. Too many wonderful chefs have been sidelined due to occupational asthma related to inhaling flour dust.
