  3. Eye and Personal Protection • Wear safety goggles when working with • Chemicals • Flying objects • Fire/flame/hot objects and liquids • Cutting glass • Gases under pressure

  4. Eye and Personal Protectioncontinued • Wear a lab apron and protective gloves when working with • Animals and plants • Chemicals • Learn about the eyewash and safety shower

  5. Eyewash and Safety Shower EYEWASH SAFETY SHOWER
