11. Laboratory “Lab” Safety

13. Can You Identify at Least 12 Safety Issues in this Picture?
Just a hint there is more than 12!

15. Safety
You are to behave yourself in a responsible manner at all times when participating in activities.
Horseplay, jokes, pranks, and other distractions are unsafe and will not be tolerated
Read your assignment before coming to class and be aware of all safety precautions

16. Safety Carefully follow all written and oral instruction.
Keep you work area clean and organized.
When performing a lab, make sure the work area has been cleared of purses, books , jackets, etc.
Never work alone in the lab.

17. Know the location and use of all safety equipment (goggles, aprons, eyewash, fire blanket, fire extinguishers, etc.)
Report All accidents, spills, or injuries to your teacher immediately.
Do not use any broken equipment or leave it laying around. Tell the teacher and dipose of it properly.
Home

18. Equipment
Examine electrical equipment for any frayed cords, exposed wires and loose connections.
If you do not understand how to use a piece of equipment, ask your teacher for help.
Handle sharp or pointed instruments appropriately and with care.

19. Safety goggles must be worn whenever you work with chemicals, flames or heat.
Tie back long hair.
Secure loose clothing and long sleeves. Sleeves should be rolled up.
No hats or jewellery that can hang down.
Wear shoes that completely cover your feet. No sandals.
Wear a lab apron when working with chemicals or substances that can stain or cause injury.

20. Do not touch, taste, or smell chemicals.
use only those chemicals needed in the activity.
Keep all lids closed when a chemical is not being used. Notify your teacher when chemicals are spilled.
Never hold your face over an open container.
Read labels twice to make sure you are using the proper chemicals.
When pouring chemicals, do it over a sink.
Dring and After

21. Never heat anything unless instructed to do so by your teacher.
Never reach over an exposed flame or a heating element.
Always turn off any heat source when not in use.
Never look into the open end of any container being heated.
Always allow time for the heated object to cool.

22. Never handle broken glass.
Examine glassware before each use.
Make sure all glassware is cleaned before and after using.
Put glassware back in its appropriate place so it is read for the next experiment.
Never eat or drink from laboratory glassware.
Dung and After

23. Dress appropriately and protect your skin.
Avoid contact with anything unless instructed by your teacher.
Do not look directly at the sun.

24. Clean-Up You must clean your work area.
Disposed of waste materials or garbage as instructed by your teacher.
Wash your hands after each activity.
Make sure your workspace and storage are neat and clean for your next experiment.

25. WHMIS
So What Does W.H.M.I.S stand for?

26. W – Workplace H – Hazardous M – Materials I – Information S - System
The Workplace Hazardous Materials Information System (WHMIS) is Canada's hazard communication standard. The key elements of the system are cautionary labelling of containers of WHMIS "controlled products", the provision of material safety data sheets (MSDSs) and worker education programs.

27. Throughout Canada, standard symbols are used to identify dangerous materials.
• The Workplace Hazardous Materials Information System (or WHMIS) has produced symbols for such workplaces as science laboratories.
These symbols are known as WHMIS symbols. .

28. A Few wHMIS SymbOls FLAMMABLE AND COMBUSTIBLE MATERIAL
- includes solids, liquids, and gases capable of catching fire in the presence of a open flame under normal working conditions.
POISONOUS AND INFECTIOUS MATERIAL -can cause death or immediate injury when a person is exposed to small amounts.

29. A Few wHMIS SymbOls CORROSIVE MATERIAL
- includes caustic and acid materials that can destroy the skin or eat through metals.
COMPRESSED GAS
-includes compressed gases, dissolved gases. Eg. Fire
extinguisher

30. A Few wHMIS SymbOls POISONOUS AND INFECTIOUS MATERIAL – Toxic Effects
-can cause life-threatening and serious long-term health problems
POISONOUS AND INFECTIOUS MATERIAL - Biohazardous Infectious
-contain an organism that has been shown to cause disease or to be a probable cause of disease in persons or animals.

31. A Few wHMIS SymbOls OXIDIZING MATERIAL
-increase the risk of fire if they come in contact with flammable materials.
DANGEROUSLY REACTIVE MATERIAL
-may react if exposed to shock, pressure or temperature, or they emit toxic gases when exposed to water.

32. Hazardous Household Product Symbol
H.H.P.S.
Hazardous Household Product Symbol
• The Hazardous Household Product Symbols (or HHPS) were developed for people buying and using materials around the home similar to WHMIS

33. The Household Hazard Product (HHPS) Symbols
Explosive
- explode if it's heated or punctured. Flying pieces of metal or plastic can cause serious injuries, especially to the eyes.
Examples: aerosol containers e.g. spray paint
Corrosive
-will burn skin or eyes on contact, or throat and stomach if swallowed.
Examples: toilet bowl cleaner, oven cleaner

34. The Household Hazard Product (HHPS) Symbols
Flammable
- product or its fumes, will catch fire easily if it's near heat, flames or sparks.
Examples: gasoline
Poison
-Licking, eating, drinking, or sometimes smelling, this product will cause illness or death.
Examples: windshield washer fluid, furniture polish

35. The Shape the Symbols are in
Are Important too!

36. The Household Hazard Product (HHPS) Symbols
Triangle (inverted)
This frame looks like a traffic yield sign.
It means to handle the container with
CAUTION
Quadilateral (four sides)
It means that the contents inside the container are WARNING
Before October 1, 2001 the old regulations required three different frames to indicate the degree of hazard. Now, only two frames are used to distinguish between the contents of the product and the container itself.
Octagon (eight sides)
This frame looks like a traffic stop sign. It means that the contents inside the container are DANGEROUS
