any hazardous substance on the job. They should also get a yearly one-hour update.
2. MSDS -- Located in your building are the Safety Specification Documents and Material Safety Data
Sheets (MSDS). See the site Safety Representative for the actual location.
3. Process Details -- These include the "Signal Word" and Hazard Statement," and a list of the
necessary protective equipment required for each chemical specified for the operation. Electrical
and mechanical hazards are identified as well. Look for warning labels where the hazard is first
introduced to the process.
4. Chemical Disposal Directions -- The process details also specify the proper disposal procedures for
any chemical used in the operation. Important: never dispose of any waste chemical unless you
know the proper disposal procedure.
