An MSDS lists the hazardous chemical contents of a product, describes its <br /> health and safety hazards, and gives methods for using, storing and disposing of it <br /> safely. The employer may obtain an MSDS from the manufacturer of the product <br /> containing mercury. An example of an MSDS for mercury is provided in appendix A. <br /> The Hazard Evaluation System and Information Service (HESIS) produces fact sheets, <br /> booklets, and technical documents on work place chemicals. A HESIS fact sheet <br /> regarding mercury is provided in appendix B. HESIS fact sheets are designed as an aid <br /> for worker training programs and does not take the place of an MSDS. The HESIS + <br /> office is located in Berkeley, California, and can be contacted at (510) 540-3138. <br /> Employees should be trained on operational and safety aspects of any equipment used <br /> during mercury component removal.
