| Abstract (English): | In the painting process of the industries such as automotive, metalworking, woodworking and construction different kind of chemicals are used. Some of them produce volatile organic compounds (VOC) and cause adverse effects on human health, which are related to the degree of toxicity of the chemical and the time of exposure. The target was describe the hierarchy of controls that were performed against chemical hazards related to exposure to volatile organic compounds, in order to advice stakeholders in the implementation of measures at individual and work environment that lead to the safe handling and counteract the adverse effects from the use of VOCs. The methodology was based on collecting and analyzing information from Industrial Hygiene and Health at work of organizations such as American Conference of Industrial Hygienists, National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health, Occupational Safety and Health Administration, International Agency for Research on Cancer, American National Standards Institute, among others. The result of this research identified 107 chemicals as the main components of the products used in the painting process. Among them 59 are VOC, 12 are in groups 1 and 2 of International Agency for Research on Cancer, 24 have TLV below 100 ppm and 19 are on that value, therefore, controls of substitution, engineering and administrative interventions are required.

| Abstract (Spanish): | En los procesos de pintura de las industrias automotriz, metalmecánica, transformación de madera y construcción se utilizan varias sustancias químicas generadoras de compuestos orgánicos volátiles (COV), las cuales producen efectos adversos en la salud humana y están relacionadas con el grado de toxicidad del agente químico y del tiempo de exposición. El objetivo de este trabajo fue describir la jerarquía de controles existentes frente al peligro químico, por exposición a COV en las industrias mencionadas, con el fin de orientar a las partes interesadas en la implementación de medidas en el ambiente de trabajo y en el individuo, que lleven a un manejo seguro y que permita mitigar los efectos adversos derivados del uso de los COV. La metodología se fundamentó en recopilar y analizar la información existente en higiene industrial y salud en el trabajo de organizaciones como American Conference of Industrial Hygienists, National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health, Occupational Safety and Health Administration, International Agency for Research on Cancer, American National Standards Institute, entre otras. Como resultado, se identificaron 107 sustancias químicas como las principales componentes de los productos usados en los procesos de pintura, de los cuales 59 son COV, 12 están en los incluidos dentro de los grupos 1 y 2 de la International Agency for Research on Cancer, 24 cuentan con valor límite permisible por debajo de 100 partes por millón y 19 se encuentran sobre dicho valor; por ello se requieren controles de sustitución, ingeniería e intervenciones de tipo administrativo.

| Abstract (Portuguese): | No processo de pintura automotiva, metalurgia, marcenaria e construção, várias substâncias químicas que geram compostos orgânicos voláteis (COV) são usados que causam efeitos adversos na saúde humana, que estão relacionadas com o grau de toxicidade do produto químico e o tempo de exposição. O objetivo era fazer com que a descrição da hierarquia de controles em frente ao perigo químico, exposição a compostos orgânicos voláteis nas indústrias mencionadas acima, a fim de orientar as partes interessadas na implementação de medidas no ambiente de trabalho e do indivíduo, que levam a uma condução segura e ajudar a mitigar os efeitos adversos decorrentes da utilização de compostos orgânicos voláteis. A metodologia foi baseada na coleta e análise de informações sobre higiene industrial e saúde no trabalho de organizações como a Conferência Americana de Higienistas Industriais, Instituto Nacional de Segurança e Saúde Ocupacional, Occupational Safety and Health Administration, Agência Internacional para Pesquisa em Câncer, American National Standards Institute, entre outros. Como resultado, 107 substâncias químicas como os principais componentes dos produtos utilizados no processo de pintura, dos quais 59 são compostos orgânicos voláteis, 12 estão em incluídos nos grupos 1 e 2 Agência Internacional para Pesquisa em Câncer, 24 têm TLV abaixo identificado 100 ppm e 19 de mentir sobre esse valor, segundo o qual as intervenções controles de nível de substituição, engenharia e administrativas necessárias.
