Safe Handling of Chemicals

Many chemicals used at work pose serious health risk to the workers. The consequences of exposures to these chemicals can lead to chronic or acute health effects, and can be life threatening or even fatal depending on several factors. Explosive substances, solvents, dangerous goods and other chemicals in various forms have also contributed to increased risk of fire and explosion when not properly managed.
