If user operations generate dust, fumes , gas , vapor controls or mist , use process enclosures , local exhaust ventilation or other engineering controls to keep worker exposure to airborne contaminants below any recommended or statutory limits . The engineering controls also need to keep gas , vapor or dust concentrations below any lower explosive limits . Use explosion-proof ventilation equipment. Environmental exposure Emissions from ventilation or work process equipment should be checked to ensure controls they comply with the requirements of environmental protection legislation . In some cases , fume scrubbers , filters or engineering modifications to the process equipment will be necessary to reduce emissions to acceptable levels . Individual protection measures Hygiene measures Wash hands , forearms and face thoroughly after handling chemical products , before eating , smoking and using the lavatory and at the end of the working period . Appropriate techniques should be used to remove potentially contaminated clothing . Wash contaminated clothing before reusing .
