• Key Concepts: 
  Occupational exposure limit (OEL) is a term used in SAP EHS Management to refer to the maximum amount of a hazardous substance that an employee can be exposed to during their workday. It is based on the amount of the substance that is considered safe for human health and is set by regulatory authorities. 
  
  How to use it: 
  In SAP EHS Management, OELs are used to monitor and control employee exposure to hazardous substances. The system will alert users when an employee’s exposure exceeds the OEL, allowing them to take corrective action. OELs can also be used to set up safety protocols and procedures for employees working with hazardous substances. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  It is important to regularly review and update OELs in SAP EHS Management as regulatory authorities may change the limits over time. Additionally, it is important to ensure that all employees are aware of the OELs and understand how they should be adhered to in order to maintain a safe working environment.
