The permissible exposure limit PEL or OSHA PEL is a law legal limit in the United States for exposure of an employee to a chemical substance or physical agent. For chemicals, the regulation of chemicals chemical regulation is usually expressed in parts per million ppm , or sometimes in milligram s per cubic metre mg m sup 3 sup . Units of measure for physical agents such as noise are specific to the agent. Permissible exposure limits are established by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration OSHA . A PEL is usually given as a time weighted average TWA , although some are short term exposure limit s STEL or ceiling limit s. A TWA is the average exposure over a specified period of time, usually a nominal eight hours. This means that, for limited periods, a worker may be exposed to concentrations higher than the PEL, so long as the average concentration over eight hours remains lower. A short term exposure limit is one that addresses the average exposure over a 15 30 minute period of maximum exposure during a single work shift. A ceiling limit is one that may not be exceeded for any period of time, and is applied to irritants and other materials that have immediate effects.
