Like manufacturers in all industries, pharmaceutical manufacturers and their employees face real and serious health and safety issues. In some cases, the hazards are the same ones we find in most manufacturing facilities. In other cases, the hazards are more specific to pharmaceutical manufacturing. Likewise, pharmaceutical manufacturers use hazard controls and risk mitigations that are common to many industries as well as more specific to pharmaceutical manufacturing, including all levels of the hierarchy of controls, from elimination down to administrative controls such as training for pharmaceutical safety and the use of PPE.
This presentation gives a detailed and in-depth overview of health and safety in construction industry by putting a special focus on the chemical and biological categories of hazards in the construction industry.

Health Education on prevention of hypertensionRadhika kulvi
Hypertension is a chronic condition of concern due to its role in the causation of coronary heart diseases. Hypertension is a worldwide epidemic and important risk factor for coronary artery disease, stroke and renal diseases. Blood pressure is the force exerted by the blood against the walls of the blood vessels and is sufficient to maintain tissue perfusion during activity and rest. Hypertension is sustained elevation of BP. In adults, HTN exists when systolic blood pressure is equal to or greater than 140mmHg or diastolic BP is equal to or greater than 90mmHg. The

2. • A Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) is a
document that contains information on the
potential health effects of exposure to chemicals,
or other potentially dangerous substances, and
on safe working procedures when handling
chemical products.
3. History
• The earliest written material has been found in
the tombs of the Egyptians, either on the walls of
their tombs or on papyrus records.
• These date back over 4,000 years and include
the prescriptions of Imhotep, the first great
Egyptian physician.
4. Material Safety Data Sheets
• Include specific chemical identity and common
names
• Must provide information about:
▫ Physical and chemical characteristics
▫ Health effects
▫ Exposure limits
▫ Carcinogenicity (cancer-causing)
▫ Identification (name, address, and telephone number)
of the organization responsible for preparing the sheet
▫ Must be readily accessible to employees in their work
area
5. Who prepares and provides MSDSs?
• Manufacturers and importers of dangerous
goods and hazardous substances must:
• prepare an MSDS for each of their products
• provide the current MSDS to employers or
occupiers of premises where the product is used
or stored
• review and revise each MSDS as often as
necessary and at least every 5 years to make sure
that the information is accurate and up to date
6. Risk phrases - examples
• R1: Explosive when dry
• R2: Risk of explosion by shock, friction, fire
or other sources of ignition
• R3: Extreme risk of explosion by shock,
friction, fire or other sources of ignition
• R4: Forms very sensitive explosive metallic
compounds
• R5: Heating may cause an explosion

7. Types of hazards
• When you read an MSDS, you should keep in mind that there are three
main types of hazards which can be related to the use of a chemical product:
• - Health Hazards. For example, skin contact with strong acids
will cause burns.
• - Fire Hazards. For example, propane burns very easily and
may explode.
• - Reactivity Hazards. For example, mixing ammonia and
household bleach will result in the release of a harmful gas.
• In addition, international format MSDSs include information
on environmental hazards (hazards to the natural
environment).
10. Oxidizer
• An oxidizer is a type of chemical
which a fuel requires to burn.
• Most types of burning on Earth
use oxygen, which is prevalent in
the atmosphere. However in
space there is no atmosphere to
provide oxygen or
other oxidizers
• so rockets need to carry up their
own oxidizers.
18. Exclamation Mark

Editor's Notes
Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) Hazard Communication Standard
Pyrophoric chemicals are liquids and solids that will ignite spontaneously in air at about 130 degrees F.
Titanium dichloride and phosphorus are example of pyrophoric solids; tributylaluminum and related compounds are examples of pyrophoric liquids.
From Wikipedia on organic peroxides:
In polymer chemistry
Organic peroxides find numerous applications, often involving similar chemistry. Thus, peroxides serve as accelerators, activators, cross-linking agents, curing and vulcanization agents, hardeners, polymerisation initiators, and promoters. Drying oils, as found in many paints and varnishes function via the formation of hydroperoxides.
Methyl ethyl ketone peroxide, benzoyl peroxide and to a smaller degree acetone peroxide are used as initiators for radical polymerization of some resins, e.g. polyester and silicone, often encountered when making fiberglass.
Self-reactive Substances
What are unstable chemicals?
Unstable or self-reactive substances are chemicals which have the potential to vigorously polymerize, decompose, condense, or become self-reactive under conditions of shock, pressure, temperature, light, or contact with another material. Major types of highly reactive chemicals are explosives, peroxides, water-reactives, and pyrophorics.
What should I do when handling unstable chemicals?
• Always wear safety goggles, closed toe shoes, and gloves
• Handle under a hood if the reaction has the potential of creating gases
• If there is a chance of explosion, use barriers or other forms of isolation methods
• For some heat sensitive materials, temperature should be controlled.
• Date all containers when received or opened
Acids have better warning properties than bases. Acids will burn quickly, the victim will seek water, FAST.
Caustics, poor warning properties: slippery feeling, break down proteins in the skin.
