We use many chemicals… We want you to know how to use them safely
You will learn about… The Hazard Communication Standard NDOC Written Program Labeling Material Safety Data Sheets Spill Response Who to ask for more information
5
Close Encounters with Chemicals
We encounter chemicals almost every day Filling your vehicle with gas Cleaning the bathroom Applying pesticides or insecticides Using solvents or acids at work Many chemicals can cause injury or illness if not handled properly
6
Right to Know OSHA created the Hazard Communication Standard to help ensure safety when working with hazardous chemicals You have a RIGHT TO KNOW about the hazardous chemicals you use on the job and how to work safely with those chemicals
7
Hazard Communication Standard
Chemical Manufacturers Must: Determine a chemical’s hazards Provide labels and MSDSs Employers must: Provide a hazard communication program Maintain MSDSs Train on hazardous materials
8
Hazard Communication Standard (cont)
Employees must: Read labels and MSDSs Follow employer instructions and warnings Identify hazards before starting a job Participate in training
9
Hazard Communication Standard (cont)
What items do (or do not) require MSDS’s Articles Food Cosmetics Drugs Hazardous waste Tobacco Wood products Consumer products Nuisance dust Radiation Biological hazards Office & school supplies
10
Chemical Hazards Physical Hazards (external): Flammable Explosive Reactive Health Hazards (internal): Acute Chronic
11
Chemical Exposure Dosage Acute effects - immediate health effect (irritation, tissue damage, dizziness, nausea, rashes, or respiratory irritation) Chronic effects – exposure over a long period of time (months, years)
12
Routes of Entry Absorption Inhalation Ingestion (swallowing) Injection
13
Personal Protective Equipment
Dust mask and respirators Glasses, goggles, and face shields Hearing protection Gloves Foot protection Head protection Aprons or full-body suits
14
Hazardous Materials First Aid
Eyes: Flush with water for 30 minutes Skin: Wash with soap and water Inhalation: Move to fresh air Ingestion: Get emergency medical assistance Injection: Get emergency medical assistance / call coroner
