106/2010 Coll. GOVERNMENT REGULATION of 29 March 2010 amending Government Regulation No. 1/2008 Coll., On health protection against ionizing radiation non-Government directs pursuant this section 108 Sec 3 of the Act No. 258/2000 Coll., On public health protection and amendment of related laws, section 21 letter. and) Act No. 309/2006 Coll., stipulating further requirements for safety and health at work in labor relations, and on safety and health activities or providing service outside labor-relations (Act on securing the other conditions for safety and health work), and by the Act No. 262/2006 Coll., the Labour Code, as amended: Article. And Decree No. 1/2008 Coll., On health protection against ionizing radiation non-a, is amended as follows: 1. the Footnote. 1 reads: "1) European Parliament and Council Directive 2004/40/EC of 29 April 2004 on the minimum health and safety requirements for exposure of workers to the risks arising from physical agents (electromagnetic fields). Directive of the European Parliament and Council Directive 2006/25/EC of 5 April 2006 on the minimum health and safety exposure of workers to the risks arising from physical agents (optical radiation from artificial sources) (nineteenth individual Directive within the meaning of Art. 16, paragraph 1 of Directive 89/391/EEC). ". 2. In section 1 para. 1 point. (b)) after the word "light" words "in the frequency range from 0 Hz this third 1011 Hz '. 3. In section 1 para. 1 point. (c)), the words "3. 1011 Hz "is replaced by" 1.7. 1015 Hz '. 4. section 2 para. 1 point. (c)) after the word "parameter" the words "radiation in the frequency range from 0 Hz this third 1011 Hz '. 5. § 3 para. 1 point. (b)), the words "or dopadnuvší density of radiant energy" are deleted. 6. section 6 of the introductory part of the word "light" words "in the frequency range from 0 Hz this third 1011 Hz '. 7. the fourth Part including the title and footnotes. 3-5 reads: "PART FOUR workers ' health from the adverse effects of optical radiation section 8 (section 35 and 36 of Law No. 258/2000 Coll.) (1) optical radiation For the purposes of this Regulation from artificial sources of radiation in the frequency range from third 1011 Hz it 1.7. 1015 Hz, corresponding wavelengths it from 100 nm to 1 mm, whose spectrum is divided into ultraviolet radiation) in the wavelength range from 100 nm 400 nm it, which are further divided into the first ultraviolet UVA corresponding wavelengths from 315 nm 400 nm, it the second ultraviolet UVB radiation corresponding wavelengths of it from 280 nm it 315 nm , and the third ultraviolet UVC radiation wavelengths of corresponding it from 100 nm, 280 nm it b) visible radiation in the wavelength range from 780 nm 380 nm it, c) infrared radiation in the wavelength range from 780 nm to 1 mm. (2) During the emission of optical radiation to distinguish coherent and incoherent. Coherent radiation arises stimulated emission which is uniquely defined by its frequency and phase; the radiation emitted by the laser radiation is coherent. Incoherent light of spontaneous emission of radiation. (3) For the purposes of this Regulation, the laser means any device that can be adjusted to create or amplify electromagnetic radiation in the wavelength range of optical radiation is primarily a process of controlled stimulated emission. (4) the exposure limit values nekohorentnímu optical radiation are given in Annex No. 2 to this Order. (5) the exposure limit values for laser radiation broadcast are given in Annex No. 3 to this Order. § 9 (section 35 and 36 of the Act No. 258/2000 Coll.) When classifying lasers into classes follows the technical standards governing the laser safety ^ 3) (hereinafter the "Technical Standard"). § 10 Data technical documentation necessary for health (to section 35 and 36 of the Act No. 258/2000 Coll.) Each laser must be accompanied by a technical dossier in which are contained the following information: a) the wavelength of the laser radiation and the type of laser active environment; in the case of lasers emitting radiation of a greater number of wavelengths, coordinates all emitted wavelengths, (b)) the system for generating laser radiation, continuous or pulse, pulsed, high repetition rate, c) the diameter of the radiation beam at the output of the laser and its divergence for convergent beam as well as its smallest diameter, d) for generating laser radiation 1st in continuous mode , the most radiant, 2nd in pulse mode radiant energy in a single pulse, the longest and shortest duration of a single pulse, maximum and minimum pulse repetition frequency pulse mode, 3rd with a high repetition rate data, as in section 2 and largest high luminous flux outgoing radiation, e) classification laser class, f) data on factors other than the radiation generated during the operation of the laser , which could adversely affect the working conditions and health, g) the instructions for proper assembly and installation, including construction and space requirements, h) operating instructions for normal and emergency situations, maintenance instructions, and if necessary, important notices, such as the ban on removing the cover with lasers bearing housing or hazards arising from the observation beam with optical aids, i) laser serial number and year of manufacture , trade name or the name and address of the manufacturer, in the case of a legal person, or the name or names or business name and place of business of the manufacturer, in the case of a natural person. section 11 of the monitoring and assessment of exposure this optical radiation (to section 35 and 36 of Law No. 258/2000 Coll.) (1) Determining the level of optical radiation is performed based on measurements made by an authorized person; 4) or calculation according to the relationships specified in their Annexes. 2 and 3 to this Order. (2) the Evaluation of working conditions at work associated with optical radiation exposure that includes data on and) the level, wavelength range and duration of exposure that artificial sources of optical radiation, b) potential effects on the health and safety of workers arising from the interaction between optical radiation and photosensitising effects of chemicals with c) any indirect effects such as temporary blinding , explosion or fire, d) the availability of equipment that lessen exposure this optical radiation, e) the conclusions of the audit investigation, public health surveillance, f) the number of installations of optical radiation from artificial sources, g) the classification of the laser's class, according to technical standards ^ 3) and any artificial sources of optical radiation, which could cause injuries at work , similar laser damage assigned according to technical standards ^ 3) Class 3B or 4, and the data from the manufacturers of optical radiation sources. section 11a of the Minimum measures to protect health associated with exposure that optical radiation (to section 35 and 36 of Law No. 258/2000 Coll.)
