IN MANAGING CHEMICAL SAFETY
![Page 4: Chemical Safety made easy for SHO](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062523/589ec7481a28ab47138b514d/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
“I was not a science student before, so
I don’t know about chemicals.
So I’ll just ignore the hazard”

“ If we are not familiar with the hazard,
we should consider the worst case

though it may not be necessary”
