MFS Stockton Safe Handling Procedures <br /> Handling Hazardous Materials: <br /> Follow all established procedures and perform job duties according to <br /> your training. <br /> Be cautious and plan ahead. Prepare for things that could go wrong <br /> and pay close attention to what you're doing while you work. <br /> Always use appropriate Personal Protective Equipment (PPE). Make <br /> sure to inspect it carefully before each use to make sure it's suitable. <br /> Replace worn out or damaged PPE that won't provide adequate <br /> protection. <br /> • Understand emergency action procedures. Know evacuation <br /> procedures, emergency reporting procedures, and procedures for dealing <br /> with fires and spills. <br /> Know what to do in a medical emergency, if a co-worker is injured or <br /> overcome by chemicals. <br /> • Keep you and your work area clean. After handling any material, wash <br /> your hands thoroughly with soap and water. Clean work surfaces at least <br /> once a shift so that contamination risks are minimized. <br /> Never eat or drink while handling any materials, and if your hands are <br /> contaminated, don't use cosmetics or handle contact lenses <br /> • Make sure all containers are properly labeled and that the material is <br /> contained in an appropriate container. Don't use any material that is not <br /> contained or labeled properly. Report any damaged containers or illegible <br /> labels to your supervisor right away. <br /> Read labels and the material safety data sheet (MSDS) before using <br /> any material to make sure you understand hazards and precautions. <br /> Use all materials solely for their intended purpose. Don't, for example, <br /> use solvents to clean your hands, or gasoline to wipe down equipment. <br /> Keep lids on containers always. The term "closed" means leak proof <br /> and vapor tight. <br /> Store all materials properly, separate incompatibles, and store in <br /> ventilated, dry, cool areas. <br /> • Keep storage areas free from accumulated materials that cause <br /> tripping, fires, or explosions <br /> Print Name CoZEy DF_gL, <br /> Signature��.,r/ <br /> Dater Z-7p2o <br />
