The Commission should ensure uniform compliance by the Member States with the limits regarding exposure of workers to carcinogens.

Recital 2
(2) For some carcinogens and mutagens it is necessary to consider other absorption pathways, including the possibility of penetration through the skin, in order to ensure the best possible level of protection. Information of workers regarding the risks of exposure to carcinogens and mutagens and programmes to raise awareness of the need for strict safety standards at the workplace help mitigate the risks of exposure to these substances.
