Science Safety/Chemical Hygiene Training 2013-2014 Format
10 sessions (5 face-to-face, 5 Electronic) We will be utilizing Flinn Safety Training (FST) as our main focus – 10 units of Flinn Safety Training (FST) – Prek-8 will complete Middle School Training – 9-12 will complete High School Training – Complete one unit of Flinn training for each month; make sure that you complete the assessment for each unit. – Unit Schedule • August: complete unit 1, • September complete unit 2 prior to 9/23 • October complete unit 3 • November complete unit 4 prior to 11/18 • December complete unit 5 • January complete unit 6 prior to 1/27 • February complete unit 7 • March complete unit 8 prior to 3/10 • April complete unit 9 • May complete unit 10 prior to 5/19 – Each unit will be discussed either electronically or face-to-face – It is the expectation that all OCS science teachers will receive Science Safety Certification

**Documentation required for OCS School Safety Plan
Create a Classroom Culture of Safety
Model safety Post safety rules Practice safety procedures, use scenarios, role play Review safety issues prior to lab, MSDS Debrief about safety after the lab.
Include safety questions on assessments.
Teach the consequences of not following safety procedures.
Procedures for Disposal of Chemical Waste Disclaimer: Please research the proper disposal method of the chemistry lab before you do the actual lab. If you do not have the means to be able to properly dispose of the waste yourself, please look into alternative labs. Remember Chemistry can be green too! Use Science Safety meetings as a networking opportunity and find out what other labs are being done. Disposal is a very expensive process.
**If you have chemical waste that needs to be disposed of and you cannot take care of it at the local level, please contact Jeffrey (Dusty)Rhodes or Michele Halley at the Central office.
When you email one of us for waste disposal, you will need to provide and prepare by the following: All containers submitted for disposal must be clearly labeled with the complete chemical name(s) of all waste in the container or product name if available. All containers must be in good condition without leaks, the outside of the container must be free from contamination and lids or covers must be securely in place.
Original containers should be used whenever possible. However, if these are not available, the following rules apply:
– –
If possible, collect waste in containers no larger than one gallon or four liters.
Never fill any container of liquid completely full. For a one-gallon bottle, allow at least two inches of free air space at the top of the containers to prevent pressure build-up.
–
Dry materials contaminated with chemicals (paper, rags, towels, wipes, or spill contaminated materials) must be double bagged in heavy-duty plastic bags. Tape all containers of chemically-contaminated dry materials securely shut and label the outside of any container clearly with descriptions of its contents and the chemical contaminants.
–
If you are packing glass containers for disposal, they must be placed in a well padded box to prevent bumping and breakage. Please reuse original boxes when possible.
