Environmental exposure
controls
:
Emissions from ventilation or work process equipment should be checked to ensure
they comply with the requirements of environmental protection legislation.
Appropriate engineering
controls
:
Use only with adequate ventilation. Use process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation or
other engineering controls to keep worker exposure to airborne contaminants below any
recommended or statutory limits. The engineering controls also need to keep gas,
vapor or dust concentrations below any lower explosive limits. Use explosion-proof
ventilation equipment.
Wash hands, forearms and face thoroughly after handling chemical products, before
eating, smoking and using the lavatory and at the end of the working period. Wash
contaminated clothing before reusing. Ensure that eyewash stations and safety
showers are close to the workstation location.
