The employer must ensure that a local review of the products, safety data sheets, and protective measures is conducted. Demonstrate the proper use of equipment and personal protective equipment, and practice handling spills and accidents when the risk warrants it. Assign a person with the necessary expertise in the work and the chemicals.
Diisocyanates and working with asbestos have their own training requirements. This general chemicals course does not replace those training programs.
