   Protocol for lab accident
   What NOT to wear in the lab
   How one should act when in a lab
   Housekeeping
   Safety/Warning Labels
   Safety Information
   Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)
   Conclusion
   There are three main factors when reporting
    an incident or injury:
   first response: treating the injured person
   recording details of the incident (who, where,
    when, treatment)
   notifying the higher up person whether it be a
    boss, teacher etc...and allowing them to take
    care of the situation and decide what is going
    to happen next in the process
   Loose clothing
   Dangling jewelry
   Open toed shoes
   Hair down
   Be respectful of everyone
   Be respectful of the equipment
   Don’t fool around
   Don’t play with laboratory equipment
   Be extremely careful with sharps in the lab
   Be extremely careful when handling lab
    equipment
   Do NOT run in the lab
 Keep everything neat
  in the lab
 Clean the lab space
  thoroughly at the end
  of each lab session
 Dispose of objects in
  the proper places
     Ex: sharps in the sharps
      container
   Each of the labels on the previous slide are
    used for various reasons in a lab.
   The labels are used to warn an individual of
    the potential safety hazard associated with
    the object.
   Each of the six labels on the previous slide
    correspond to the labels that would be
    located at the various locations in the lab.
   These labels will help an individual to locate a
    safety feature in the lab easier than if there
    was no helpful labels near the safety objects.
   The PPE equipment on the previous slide is
    some of the basic protective equipment that
    should be worn in the laboratory on a daily
    basis when using the lab.
   Four main PPE pieces that should be worn
    most of the time in a lab are the following:
    Safety goggles, lab coat, mask, and gloves.
   PPE includes body
    protection.
   The need for the different
    types of PPE is dependent
    upon the type of
    operations and the nature
    and quantity of the
    materials in use, and must
    be assessed on a case by
    case basis.
   Workers who rely on PPE
    must understand the
    function of, proper use,
    and limitations of the PPE
    being used.
 Lab safety is essential
  when using a
  laboratory
 Disposing of certain
  objects properly is
  extremely important
 Respecting others and
  the lab equipment are
  two very important
  factors for practicing
  lab safety
1.   Why is it so important to practice good
     safety in the laboratory?
2.   What is the first thing that should happen if
     an accident happens while in the lab?
3.   T/F. Wearing clogs in the laboratory is
     acceptable? Why/Why Not?
4.   Why is proper PPE important in the lab?
5.   What do you feel is the single most
     important thing about laboratory safety to
     remember?
