    Gas Leak

    I agree with what has been said above about evacuating and calling the FD. I also believe, if I am not mistaken, that if you do investigate yourself that that falls under emergency response and you need to have 2 in - 2 out and an Inicident Command strutcure etc... The FD has all that in...

    Gas Leak

    I tried searching but didn't find anything. What is your location's policy on gas leak inside a building. Do you evacuate immediatly, or do you investigate first and only evacuate if LEL is over 10%???

    OSHA Inspection

    I do not have anything to hide, but why invite more scrutiny then you have to. Can you say that every bench grinder you have is set properly all the time? or every bottle is labeled correctly and didn't fall off right before the inspector arrived, etc...

    OSHA Inspection

    I was wondering what your policy is in handling a focused OSHA inspection. Say for example an OSHA inspector comes and states he is there to investigate a given machine due to a complaint. Would you drive him around the outside of the plant to the nearest door to go directly to the machine in...

    MSDS requirement

    Sorry, I wasn't clear. I have MSDS on file for my location for the paint. We are giving it out to customers with our product for touch up. I didn't know if we are supposed to be giving an MSDS sheet to them. And occassionally we sell it to OEM customers.

    MSDS requirement

    On some of our products we give out a small can of touch up paint in an aerosol spray can. Are we required to give the customers an MSDS along with this? I get the MSDS from the manufaturer when it comes to us, but we do not give an MSDS when we pass it on to our customers?

    Labeling Bottles

    I was looking for some new ideas and/or suggestions of attaching HMIS labels to spray bottles. We currently try to laminate the stickers then use packing tape over that on the bottles, or we use zip ties to attach the lamented label to the neck of the bottle. The poblem is when the product is...

    Discarding Empty Drums

    We have drums that are empty. These drums used to have anywhere from latex paint, hydraulic oil, vanishing oil, cleaner/degreaser. We also have some drums that have had hazardous material in it (isocyanate). For the non-hazardous drums do they just need to be empty (less than 1") and take...
