This DVD comes with a Facilitator's Guide
Chemicals are a fact of life.....all living things are made from chemicals and in fact we depend on chemistry for our very existence.....everything from the ground we walk on , to the air we breathe is made from chemicals and chemical compounds.
Every workplace, office, factory, warehouse or plant, uses chemicals to some extent or other. Chemicals range from mild cleaning agents through to highly corrosive, flammable and poisonous substances that are used for different processes and applications.
Fungicides, insecticides, solvents, acids and radio-active materials are representative of some of the chemical groups that are used in industry today which present many hazards.
Chemicals can only be harmful to individuals in three ways, they can:
1. Contribute to cause fire or explosion
2. Come into contact with the body
3. Enter the body
This program includes:
- Details on chemical entry into the body
- The dose and hazards
- Fire and explosion
- Environmental pollution
- Control measures including elimination, substitution, isolation, ventilation and monitoring of contaminant levels.
- Personal hygiene, good housekeeping and the wearing of appropriate personnal protective equipment
- Storage and transportation
- Evaluation of handling and storage methods
The safe handling and storage of all chemicals regardless of where they are used requires a commitment by everyone to follow safe work procedures. The realisation of the risks and an ongoing program to minimise the hazards will reduce accidents and make your workplace a safer workplace.
Program designed as suitable for all personnel.
