Knowing information about the chemical and solutions used at work and where to find  information will help keep the workplace  safe and maintain a healthy environment. 

Different factors can affect the body’s response to chemical exposure.  Be aware of the risks of each kind of chemical or solution used. The route that a chemical enters the body can affect the body’s response. The amount of chemical someone is exposed to and the level of toxicity of that chemical are both critical factors. 

Another important factor is the amount of time someone is exposed to a chemical. If you do not know and cannot find information about each chemical, talk to management to get the information. .
