TRAINING CHEMICAL HAZARD SAFETY IN MINING AND WORKPLACE

TRAINING CHEMICAL HAZARD SAFETY IN MINING AND WORKPLACE

TRAINING HAZARD COMMUNICATION PROGRAM

TRAINING CHEMICAL HAZARDS CONTROL

Description
* Hazardous materials, which are often referred to as chemical hazards, exist in one form or another in nearly all workplaces. There is potential exposure to hazardous chemicals in any industrial and production activity. The Basic Chemical Safety Course focuses on recognition and identification of chemical hazards, its potential acute and chronic health effects in exposed employees, and the risk of fire and explosion.
* It provides a basic but thorough review of sources of hazardous chemicals, its characteristics, devastating mechanism, and the method by which it can be controlled. Active participation is encouraged through case studies, examples, and an open discussion format.

Training Highlights
* What hazardous materials are, and how chemicals exist in mining and the workplace.
* Characteristics of common industrial hazardous materials.
* Fire, explosion, dust explosion and the basic of chemistry.
* Chemical access routes to the body, target systems, and the basic of toxicology.
* Factors that affect chemical injury or illness.
* Overview of MSDS.
* Chemical hazards control and prevention methods.
* Protection method and equipment.
