The earliest and most extensive exposures to engineered nanoparticles are most likely to occur in the workplace. In fact, such exposures are already occurring.

The National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) is mandated by law to conduct research and develop guidance on worker safety and health. With limited resources over the past two years, NIOSH - working in collaboration with partners in other federal agencies, countries, academia, industry, labor and NGOs - has been conducting research and developing guidance to address the occupational safety and health of workers exposed to nanomaterials.
