Concrete drilling

Work in a auto shop. We have been installing some new lifts, incorrectly and no one will install them, but they will pass them once they are put up. (Driilling into concrete close to the joints is a no no for auto lifts).

My real question is the last one we did quite a bit of dust was circulating through the shop when drilling the concrete for the anchors. I know your supposed to have a respirator or something for the dust because the silicates.

Brought it up and they brushed it off.

Fast forward to tomorrow and we are mounting a new 4 post, have to drill 16 holes in the concrete with poor to zero ventilation. I dont want to breath that stuff in all day. We have no respirstors but do have some of those leftover masks from covid.

How would you guys approach this situation. I'm not a sissy, but I just dont want to be exposed to the silica in concrete dust.
