CHEMICAL SAFETY REVIEWER (PASSING: ONLY 1 MISTAKE?!!!?) CHEMICAL SAFETY- being safe from undergoing hurt or harm during an occurrence of chemical incident. - Chemical incident- unintentional event that may threaten to expose someone to chemical hazard HAZARD- any source of potential harm, damage or adverse effect on someone or something. CLASSIFICATION OF HAZARDS - SAFETY HAZARD- working conditions that can cause injury, illness, or death. (general) - PHYSICAL HAZARDS- may cause harm on the body even without touching it. They are generally discernible (noise, heating devices, sun, slipping, projectile) - CHEMICAL HAZARDS- chemical substance that may cause harm upon exposure to them. (flammable, reactives, corrosive, toxins) - ERGONOMIC HAZARD- physical factors in the environment that may cause problem on musculoskeletal system (posture) - PSYCHOLOGICAL HAZRDS- aspects of working environment that may affect the mental health of the individuals. - BIOLOGICAL HAZARDS- biological substances that may threaten the life of living organism expose to virus, bacteria, and animals (microbes, animals, plants) RISK- probability that a person or a thing is harmed or damage when exposed to a hazard. Higher the risk, the higher the probability of getting harmed from a exposure to hazard. RISK= HAZARD x EXPOSURE x VULNERABILITY HAZARD COMMUNICATION GHS LABELING GHS: Globally Harmonized System of classification and labeling of chemical TEMPLATE 1. Product name or identifier 2. Signal 3. Precautionary symbols or pictograms 4. Physical, health, environmental hazards statements 5. Precautionary 6. Supplier identification 7. Supplemental information ![](media/image2.jpg) **Health Hazard**: Indicates substances that may cause serious health effects, including cancer or respiratory issues. **Flame**: Represents flammable materials, self-heating substances, and those that emit flammable gas. **Exclamation Mark**: Signals irritants, skin sensitizers, and respiratory tract irritants. **Gas Cylinder**: Represents gases under pressure that may explode if heated. **Corrosion**: Indicates corrosive materials that can damage metals or cause severe skin and eye damage. **Exploding Bomb**: Signals explosive substances or those that are self-reactive. **Flame Over Circle**: Represents oxidizers that can enhance the combustion of other materials. **Environment**: Warns of substances hazardous to the aquatic environment. **Skull and Crossbones**: Indicates toxic or fatal substances if inhaled, swallowed, or in contact with skin.

Eye and face protection 2. Respiratory protection 3. Hand and arm protection 4. Foot and leg protection 5. Torso protection CHEMICAL SAFETY I LABORATORY (VID) RA 11058- ACT STRENGHTHENING COMPLIANCE WITH OCCUPATIONAL SAFETY AND HEALTH STANDARDS INHALATION- most common chemical exposure at work involving gases, vapors, smoke Eating or drinking in areas exposed to toxic materials is prohibited by the OSHA Sanitation Standard.
