DIRECTIVE 200625EC OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND OF THE COUNCIL

of 5 April 2006

on the minimum health and safety requirements regarding the exposure of workers to risksarising from physical agents (artificial optical radiation) (19th individual Directive within the

meaning of Article 16(1) of Directive 89391EEC)

THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND THE COUNCIL OF THEEUROPEAN UNION

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the EuropeanCommunity and in particular Article 137(2) thereof

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission (1)presented after consultation with the Advisory Committee onSafety and Health at Work

Having regard to the opinion of the European Economic andSocial Committee (2)

After consulting the Committee of the Regions

Acting in accordance with the procedure laid down inArticle 251 of the Treaty (3) in the light of the joint textapproved by the Conciliation Committee on 31 January 2006

Whereas

(1) Under the Treaty the Council may by means ofdirectives adopt minimum requirements for encouragingimprovements especially in the working environment toguarantee a better level of protection of the health andsafety of workers Such directives are to avoid imposingadministrative financial and legal constraints in a waywhich would hold back the creation and development ofsmall and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs)

(2) The communication from the Commission concerningits action programme relating to the implementation ofthe Community Charter of the Fundamental SocialRights of Workers provides for the introduction ofminimum health and safety requirements regarding theexposure of workers to the risks caused by physicalagents In September 1990 the European Parliamentadopted a Resolution concerning this action pro-gramme (4) inviting the Commission in particular todraw up a specific directive on the risks caused by noisevibration and any other physical agents at the workplace

(3) As a first step the European Parliament and the Counciladopted Directive 200244EC of 25 June 2002 on theminimum health and safety requirements regarding theexposure of workers to the risks arising from physicalagents (vibration) (16th individual Directive within themeaning of Article 16(1) of Directive 89391EEC) (5)Next on 6 February 2003 the European Parliament andthe Council adopted Directive 200310EC on theminimum health and safety requirements regarding theexposure of workers to the risks arising from physicalagents (noise) (17th individual Directive within themeaning of Article 16(1) of Directive 89391EEC) (6)Thereafter on 29 April 2004 the European Parliamentand the Council adopted Directive 200440EC on theminimum health and safety requirements regarding theexposure of workers to the risks arising from physicalagents (electromagnetic fields) (18th individual Directivewithin the meaning of Article 16(1) of Directive 89391EEC) (7)

(4) It is now considered necessary to introduce measuresprotecting workers from the risks associated with opticalradiation owing to its effects on the health and safety ofworkers in particular damage to the eyes and to the skinThese measures are intended not only to ensure thehealth and safety of each worker on an individual basisbut also to create a minimum basis of protection for allCommunity workers in order to avoid possible distor-tions of competition

(5) One of the aims of this Directive is the timely detectionof adverse health effects resulting from exposure tooptical radiation

(6) This Directive lays down minimum requirements thusgiving Member States the option of maintaining oradopting more stringent provisions for the protection ofworkers in particular the fixing of lower exposure limitvalues The implementation of this Directive must notserve to justify any deterioration in the situation whichalready prevails in each Member State

(7) A system of protection against the hazards of opticalradiation should limit itself to a definition free ofexcessive detail of the objectives to be attained theprinciples to be observed and the basic values to beapplied in order to enable Member States to apply theminimum requirements in an equivalent manner

(8) The level of exposure to optical radiation can be moreeffectively reduced by incorporating preventive measuresinto the design of workstations and by selecting workequipment procedures and methods so as to givepriority to reducing the risks at source Provisionsrelating to work equipment and methods thus contributeto the protection of the workers involved In accordancewith the general principles of prevention as laid down inArticle 6(2) of Council Directive 89391EEC of 12 June1989 on the introduction of measures to encourageimprovements in the safety and health of workers atwork (1) collective protection measures have priorityover individual protection measures

(9) Employers should make adjustments in the light oftechnical progress and scientific knowledge regardingrisks related to exposure to optical radiation with a viewto improving the safety and health protection of workers

(10) Since this Directive is an individual directive within themeaning of Article 16(1) of Directive 89391EEC thatDirective applies to the exposure of workers to opticalradiation without prejudice to more stringent andorspecific provisions contained in this Directive

(11) This Directive constitutes a practical step towardscreating the social dimension of the internal market

(12) A complementary approach that both promotes theprinciple of better regulation and ensures a high level ofprotection can be achieved where the products made bythe manufacturers of optical radiation sources andassociated equipment comply with harmonised standardsdevised to protect the health and safety of users from thehazards inherent in such products accordingly it is notnecessary for employers to repeat the measurements orcalculations already undertaken by the manufacturer todetermine compliance with the essential safety require-ments of such equipment as specified in the applicableCommunity Directives provided that the equipment hasbeen properly and regularly maintained

(13) The measures necessary for the implementation of thisDirective should be adopted in accordance with CouncilDecision 1999468EC of 28 June 1999 laying down theprocedures for the exercise of implementing powersconferred on the Commission (2)

(14) Adherence to the exposure limit values should provide ahigh level of protection as regards the health effects thatmay result from exposure to optical radiation

(15) The Commission should draw up a practical guide tohelp employers in particular managers of SMEs better tounderstand the technical provisions of this Directive TheCommission should strive to complete this guide asquickly as possible so as to facilitate adoption by theMember States of the measures necessary to implementthis Directive

(16) In accordance with paragraph 34 of the InterinstitutionalAgreement on better law-making (3) Member States areencouraged to draw up for themselves and in theinterests of the Community their own tables illustratingas far as possible the correlation between this Directiveand the transposition measures and to make thempublic

HAVE ADOPTED THIS DIRECTIVE

Correction for repetitive exposure

Each of the following three general rules should be applied to all repetitive exposures as occur from repetitively pulsedor scanning laser systems

1 The exposure from any single pulse in a train of pulses shall not exceed the exposure limit value for a singlepulse of that pulse duration

2 The exposure from any group of pulses (or sub-group of pulses in a train) delivered in time t shall not exceed theexposure limit value for time t

3 The exposure from any single pulse within a group of pulses shall not exceed the single‑pulse exposure limitvalue multiplied by a cumulative-thermal correction factor Cp=N-025 where N is the number of pulses This ruleapplies only to exposure limits to protect against thermal injury where all pulses delivered in less than Tmin aretreated as a single pulse

STATEMENT BY THE COUNCIL

Statement by the Council on the use of the word lsquopenaltiesrsquo in the English version of legal instruments of theEuropean Community

In the opinion of the Council when the word lsquopenaltiesrsquo is used in the English version of legal instrumentsof the European Community this word is used in a neutral sense and does not relate specifically tocriminal law sanctions but could also include administrative and financial sanctions as well as othertypes of sanction When Member States are obliged under a Community act to introduce lsquopenaltiesrsquo it isup to them to choose the appropriate type of sanction in conformity with the case law of the EuropeanCourt of Justice

In the Community language data base the following translations are made of the word lsquopenaltyrsquo in someother languages

in Spanish lsquosancionesrsquo in Danish lsquosanktionerrsquo in German lsquoSanktionenrsquo in Hungarian lsquojogkoumlvetkezmeacutenyekrsquo inItalian lsquosanzionirsquo in Latvian lsquosankcijasrsquo in Lithuanian lsquosankcijosrsquo in Dutch lsquosanctiesrsquo in Portuguese lsquosanccedilotildeesrsquoin Slovak lsquosankciersquo and in Swedish lsquosanktionerrsquo

If in revised English versions of legal instruments where the word lsquosanctionsrsquo has previously been usedthis word is replaced with the word lsquopenaltiesrsquo this does not constitute a substantive difference


(6) This Directive lays down minimum requirements thusgiving Member States the option of maintaining oradopting more stringent provisions for the protection ofworkers in particular the fixing of lower exposure limitvalues The implementation of this Directive must notserve to justify any deterioration in the situation whichalready prevails in each Member State

(7) A system of protection against the hazards of opticalradiation should limit itself to a definition free ofexcessive detail of the objectives to be attained theprinciples to be observed and the basic values to beapplied in order to enable Member States to apply theminimum requirements in an equivalent manner

(8) The level of exposure to optical radiation can be moreeffectively reduced by incorporating preventive measuresinto the design of workstations and by selecting workequipment procedures and methods so as to givepriority to reducing the risks at source Provisionsrelating to work equipment and methods thus contributeto the protection of the workers involved In accordancewith the general principles of prevention as laid down inArticle 6(2) of Council Directive 89391EEC of 12 June1989 on the introduction of measures to encourageimprovements in the safety and health of workers atwork (1) collective protection measures have priorityover individual protection measures

(9) Employers should make adjustments in the light oftechnical progress and scientific knowledge regardingrisks related to exposure to optical radiation with a viewto improving the safety and health protection of workers

(10) Since this Directive is an individual directive within themeaning of Article 16(1) of Directive 89391EEC thatDirective applies to the exposure of workers to opticalradiation without prejudice to more stringent andorspecific provisions contained in this Directive

(11) This Directive constitutes a practical step towardscreating the social dimension of the internal market

(12) A complementary approach that both promotes theprinciple of better regulation and ensures a high level ofprotection can be achieved where the products made bythe manufacturers of optical radiation sources andassociated equipment comply with harmonised standardsdevised to protect the health and safety of users from thehazards inherent in such products accordingly it is notnecessary for employers to repeat the measurements orcalculations already undertaken by the manufacturer todetermine compliance with the essential safety require-ments of such equipment as specified in the applicableCommunity Directives provided that the equipment hasbeen properly and regularly maintained

(13) The measures necessary for the implementation of thisDirective should be adopted in accordance with CouncilDecision 1999468EC of 28 June 1999 laying down theprocedures for the exercise of implementing powersconferred on the Commission (2)

(14) Adherence to the exposure limit values should provide ahigh level of protection as regards the health effects thatmay result from exposure to optical radiation

(15) The Commission should draw up a practical guide tohelp employers in particular managers of SMEs better tounderstand the technical provisions of this Directive TheCommission should strive to complete this guide asquickly as possible so as to facilitate adoption by theMember States of the measures necessary to implementthis Directive

(16) In accordance with paragraph 34 of the InterinstitutionalAgreement on better law-making (3) Member States areencouraged to draw up for themselves and in theinterests of the Community their own tables illustratingas far as possible the correlation between this Directiveand the transposition measures and to make thempublic
