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
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
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
Hazard Communication Standard (cont)
Employees must:
 Read labels and MSDSs
 Follow employer instructions and warnings
 Identify hazards before starting a job
 Participate in training
Chemical Hazards
Physical Hazards (external):
 Flammable
 Explosive
 Reactive
Health Hazards (internal):
 Acute
 Chronic
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)
Routes of Entry

Absorption

Inhalation

Ingestion (swallowing)

Injection
Personal Protective Equipment


