 Housekeeping
 Safety/Warning Labels
 Safety Information
 Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)
 Conclusion

3.  There are three main factors when reporting
an incident or injury:
 first response: treating the injured person
 recording details of the incident (who, where,
when, treatment)
 notifying the higher up person whether it be a
boss, teacher etc...and allowing them to take
care of the situation and decide what is going
to happen next in the process

4.  Loose clothing
 Dangling jewelry
 Open toed shoes
 Hair down

5.  Be respectful of everyone
 Be respectful of the equipment
 Don’t fool around
 Don’t play with laboratory equipment
 Be extremely careful with sharps in the lab
 Be extremely careful when handling lab
equipment
 Do NOT run in the lab

6.  Keep everything neat
in the lab
 Clean the lab space
thoroughly at the end
of each lab session
 Dispose of objects in
the proper places
 Ex: sharps in the sharps
container

8.  Each of the labels on the previous slide are
used for various reasons in a lab.
 The labels are used to warn an individual of
the potential safety hazard associated with
the object.

10.  Each of the six labels on the previous slide
correspond to the labels that would be
located at the various locations in the lab.
 These labels will help an individual to locate a
safety feature in the lab easier than if there
was no helpful labels near the safety objects.

13.  The PPE equipment on the previous slide is
some of the basic protective equipment that
should be worn in the laboratory on a daily
basis when using the lab.
 Four main PPE pieces that should be worn
most of the time in a lab are the following:
Safety goggles, lab coat, mask, and gloves.

14.  PPE includes body
protection.
 The need for the different
types of PPE is dependent
upon the type of
operations and the nature
and quantity of the
materials in use, and must
be assessed on a case by
case basis.
 Workers who rely on PPE
must understand the
function of, proper use,
and limitations of the PPE
being used.

16.  Lab safety is essential
when using a
laboratory
 Disposing of certain
objects properly is
extremely important
 Respecting others and
the lab equipment are
two very important
factors for practicing
lab safety

17. 1. Why is it so important to practice good
safety in the laboratory?
2. What is the first thing that should happen if
an accident happens while in the lab?
3. T/F. Wearing clogs in the laboratory is

4. Why is proper PPE important in the lab?
5. What do you feel is the single most
important thing about laboratory safety to
remember?
