TYPES OF HAZARD/ EXPOSURE

ACUTE HAZARDS/ SYMPTOMS

PREVENTION

FIRST AID/
FIRE FIGHTING

FIRE Combustible. Gives off irritating or toxic fumes (or gases) in a fire.
NO open flames, NO sparks, and NO smoking.
Powder, alcohol-resistant foam, water spray, carbon dioxide.
EXPLOSION
Prevent build-up of electrostatic charges (e.g., by grounding).

EXPOSURE


•INHALATION
Local exhaust or breathing protection.
Fresh air, rest.
•SKIN
Protective gloves. Protective clothing.
Remove contaminated clothes. Rinse and then wash skin with water and soap.
•EYES Redness.
Safety spectacles
First rinse with plenty of water (remove contact lenses if easily possible).
•INGESTION
Do not eat, drink, or smoke during work.
Rinse mouth. Refer for medical attention.
