Can Inhaling Synergize At Work Cause Health Issues?

So I am working at a hog operation where they are spraying Synergize several times a day where we are working & breathing it all the time. They are telling us to wear protective clothing & goggles, but no respirator, face mask of any kind. I believe it is making me sick, but don t know a course of action without loosing my job/causing trouble, etc.

Hi, I had gone through your query and understood your concerns.

Wear a dust/mist/filtering respirator (MSHA/NIOSH approval number prefix TC-21C) or a NIOSH approved respirator with any N, P, R, or HE prefilter.

This would help in preventing respiratory allergies. Also take other precautionary measures which they have already advised to you.

Hope this guides you. Thank you.
