United States Centers for Disease Control, Pocket Guide to Chemical
Hazards
The NPG is intended as a source of general industrial hygiene information on
several hundred chemicals/classes for workers, employers, and occupational
health professionals. The NPG does not contain an analysis of all pertinent
data, rather it presents key information and data in abbreviated or tabular
form for chemicals or substance groupings (e.g. cyanides, fluorides,
manganese compounds) that are found in the work environment. The information
found in the NPG should help users recognize and control occupational
chemical hazards.
The latest printed edition of the NIOSH Pocket Guide is dated February 2004
(green cover, NIOSH Publication No. 97-140, third printing with minor
changes) and contains information on 677 chemicals or substance groupings.

The Pocket Guide includes the following:
Chemical Names, synonyms, trade names, conversion factors, CAS, RTECS, and
DOT Numbers
NIOSH Recommended Exposure Limits (NIOSH RELs)
Occupational Safety and Health Administration Permissible Exposure Limits
(OSHA PELs)
NIOSH Immediate Dangerous to Life and Health values (NIOSH IDLHs)
