1 Bio Science: Safety

2 1. Explain why warning signs in labs are symbol heavy 2. List and explain purpose of preventative safety equipment 3. List and explain purpose of responsive safety equipment 4. Explain what to do if an incident occurs 5. Draw an accurate floor plan of their classroom lab safety equipment locations

3 Preventative – Used to reduce the risk of an accident and avert exposure. Responsive – Used when an incident has occurred to minimized damage and contain exposure

4 What do these tell you?

5 What do these sign tell you? Do you think there is a need to have universal symbols for cautioning people? Why? Come up with three (3) reasons.

6 Images from IFSTA Hazardous Materials for First Responders 4 th Edition Ch. 2 Here are examples of International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and Globally Harmonized System (GHS) safety symbol you will see in the lab. What do you notice about these that make them easy for anyone to recognizes, give three (3) examples.

7 Two (2) types: Preventative – Used to reduce the risk of an accident and avert exposure. Responsive – Used when an incident has occurred to minimized damage and contain exposure The number one purpose of all types of safety equipment is to prevent human injury and loss of life.

8 List three (3) pieces of personal protective equipment (PPE). In addition to these the lab is out fitted with other equipment. We ALWAYS use preventative equipment. Safety Signs Fume Hood Used to contain & evacuate fumes/ gasses Goggles, Aprons, and Gloves

9 We ALWAYS use preventative equipment. Respirators Absorbent Station PadsHand Wash Station Insure we do not transfer contaminates out of the lab Helps keep accidental spills/ drips contain and easy clean up http://phc.amedd.army.mil/topics/workplacehealth/ih/Pag es/RespiratoryProtection.aspx Used to keep contaminants from entering respiratory system

10 Used in the unfortunate event of an incident. We hope to never use these. Hand Wash Station Eye Wash Station Safety Shower Fire Extinguisher Absorbent Pads http://www.labenterprises.net/safety- equipment.asp

11 Spill a biological or chemical on hands: Immediately wash with Soap and water for 15min, lab partner should notify instructor immediately. Spill or splash a biological or chemical on face or in eyes: Immediately rinse out in eye wash station until instructor says to stop (20min). Lab partner should help you over to station then get instructor. Spill or splash a biological or chemical all over body: Immediately remove all clothes except undergarments and rinse under safety shower until instructor says to stop. Lab partner should get instructor.

12 Spill Chemicals or Biologicals on lab bench or floor: Take care of your body first if it contacts you. Notify others around you and instructor. Clean up. Fire: Notify instructor Pull fire alarm if instructed and prepare to evacuate Gas or toxic fume leak: Notify instructor Prepare to evacuate room

13 A/B Partner Quiz Why is a wash station both preventative and responsive safety equipment?

14 Using an entire page in your Interactive notebook, sketch a floor layout of the lab as is looking down on it. Include all permanent structures: doors, benches, tables, cabinets, fume hood, etc. Now, locate all of the safety equipment we talked about and draw it into your layout.

15 Outcome Statements Respond to one of the following prompts: a. I now understand..... b. I would like to know more about.... c. I need more help with.... d. I could teach someone else to....
