<h2 style="white-space:nowrap">Statement of Lessons Learned</h2>
<pre>Recently at Brookhaven National Laboratory a worker was using a propane torch to clean tools used for asphalt. The worker was wearing a cloth face mask that, when a flash fire occurred, could have ignited or melted to the worker's face.</pre>
<h2 style="white-space:nowrap">Discussion of Activities</h2>
<pre>The worker was performing the routine task of cleaning asphalt equipment with a propane torch. During the task the propane equipment did not functioning correctly and a flash fire occurred causing some burns to the worker. The injuries were minor, but the face mask the worker was wearing may have interfered with the worker's ability to detect the odor of propane leaking from the defective equipment and could have actually made the resulting injuries worse. </pre>
<h2 style="white-space:nowrap">Analysis</h2>
<pre>This event is still under investigation; however, Brookhaven sent a "Just-in-Time" report out to remind staff that when there are other hazards in the workplace, cloth face coverings may not be the right choice for a task.
Other hazards to consider when using cloth face coverings include arc-flash for electrical work, chemicals that might bond to the cloth, and mechanical hazards such as rotating equipment.
</pre>
<h2 style="white-space:nowrap">Recommended Actions</h2>
<pre>Assess the interaction between hazard mitigations. Consider how hazard controls interact with each other. In this case, using a propane torch while wearing a cloth mask increased the risk of burn/melt injury.
Consider alternative controls for hazards. In this case, the worker could have used a fire-rated face covering, or placed barriers to keep other workers away while the torch was being used so a mask would not have been necessary.
To aid staff in the work planning process, Brookhaven's Safety and Health Services Division developed a Risk Assessment Tool to evaluate work tasks and the use of cloth face masks.
