engineering controls and operational practices to minimize
exposure.
Protective measures: In December 2003, the National Institute for Occupational
Safety and Health ("NIOSH") published an Alert on preventing
lung disease in workers who use or make flavorings [NIOSH
Publication Number 2004-110].
In August 2004, the United States Flavor and Extract
Manufacturers Association (FEMA) issued a report entitled
"Respiratory Safety in the Flavor Manufacturing Workplace".
Both of these reports provide recommendations for reducing
employee exposure and for medical surveillance in the
workplace. The recommendations in these reports are generally
applicable to the use of any chemical in the workplace and you
are strongly urged to review both of these reports.
The report published by FEMA also contains a list of "high
priority" chemicals. If any of these chemicals are present in this
product at a concentration >= 1.0% due to an intentional addition
by Handstands, the chemical(s) will be identified in this safety
data sheet.
