Title 8 CCR, 5191 & 5194 (1) This section requires manufacturers
or importers to assess the hazards of substances which they produce or import, and all employers to provide information to their employees about the hazardous substances to which they may be exposed, by means of a hazard communication program, labels and other forms of warning, material safety data sheets, and information and training. In addition, this section requires distributors to transmit the required information to employers.

toxic? Specifically listed in the regulations? Derived from a listed material? Potentially hazardous to health & the
environment?
Confirm any non-hazardous waste determination

prohibited in labs Wash your hands after working with
hazardous materials Clean up spills immediately Keep fume hood sash at the
appropriate level Replace broken or damaged lab
equipment Empty containers are considered trash
unless contents are highly toxic
