Principal Means of Contact with Hazardous Materials

Hazardous materials can be contacted via various means, posing significant health risks.
Direct contact with the skin or eyes is a primary route of exposure.
This can cause irritation, burns, or absorption into the body, leading to severe health consequences.
Inhalation of vapors or mists from hazardous materials is another concern.
These airborne particles can be inhaled, potentially causing respiratory issues, as well as systemic effects within the body.
Absorption through the skin (dermal absorption) is a significant pathway of exposure.
Some substances can penetrate the skin and enter the bloodstream, leading to internal damage or poisoning.
The specific hazards associated with each route depend on the characteristics of the hazardous material.
Proper protective measures, including personal protective equipment (PPE), are crucial to minimize risk.
