Laboratory workers are routinely exposed to hazardous chemicals such as acetone, carbon monoxide, formaldehyde, hydrogen sulfide, mercury, nitric acid and xylene. Many accidents and injuries occur annually in laboratories, resulting in chemical-related illnesses ranging from skin and eye irritation to fatal pulmonary edema. This poses a serious problem for exposed workers and their employer. This Laboratory Safety Training Program ensures that the hazards associated with work in laboratories are evaluated, safety procedures implemented, and that the proper hazard information is transmitted to all affected workers. It is easy to edit with your company specific information.
