Minimize Exposures Take the necessary precautions when working with and
storing chemicals. As a means of minimizing the potential for exposure,
pursue opportunities for product substitution.
Do Not Underestimate Risks Ensure that the risk associated with each
chemical is assessed, understood and communicated. It is prudent to assume
all chemicals are hazardous and handle them accordingly.
Use Proper Control Measures Eliminate the hazard through engineering
controls, personal protective equipment, and administrative procedures.
Ensure that all staff is properly trained in accordance with regulatory
requirements (e.g., Laboratory Standard) so that they can operate safety at
their job.
