Hi List members!
Remember that the materials and chemicals we use are safe when used and
handled properly.
* Be sure that your facility has MSDS (material safety data
sheets) available for every chemical you use. If you don't have them
all, ask for them from the distributor or manufacturer.
* Be sure you have the appropriate safety equipment whenever you
handle/work with anything that has the potential of being a problem. If
you don't have the proper equipment, ask your employer for it or procure
it for yourself.
*
Almost anything we contact in our lives has the potential to be a
problem depending on our sensitivity and the concentration we're exposed
to.
Gasoline fumes at the pump, smoking, alcohol, chemicals in new cars and
new carpets, etc., driving in your car and walking across the street.
Take the proper precautions to educate and protect yourself!
