abstract = {Currently, nanotechnology plays a key role for technological innovation, including the
construction sector. An exponential increase is expected in its application, although this has been
hampered by the current degree of uncertainty regarding the potential effects of nanomaterials on
both human health and the environment. The accidents, illnesses, and disease related to the use of
nanoproducts in the construction sector are difficult to identify. For this purpose, this work analyzes in
depth the products included in recognized inventories and the safety data sheets of these construction
products. Based on this analysis, a review of the recommendations on the use of manufactured
nanomaterials at construction sites is performed. Finally, a protocol is proposed with the aim of
it serving as a tool for technicians in decision-making management at construction sites related to
the use of manufactured nanomaterials. This proposed protocol should be an adaptive and flexible
tool while the manufactured nanomaterials-based work continues to be considered as an “emerging
risk,” despite the expectation that the protocol will be useful for the development of new laws and
recommendations for occupational risk prevention management.},
