Cleaning companies use a variety of cleaning chemicals to get the job done. It's important for every worker to protect themselves and work safely with all chemicals they use. Here are some general guidelines: *Know what you're using. Never use chemicals contained in an unlabeled bottle. *Read the labels on all chemicals being used. Pay attention to safety precautions and follow the instructions for use. *Measure all chemicals according to the instructions. If the instructions say to use 3 ounces of chemical in 1 gallon of water, measure each correctly. Too weak a solution may not provide the proper germ killing or cleaning power, and too strong a solution may damage the surface you're cleaning. Too strong a solution may also cause injury to yourself or others. *Never substitute one chemical for another. Use each chemical for its designated use. *Never mix chemicals together. This is a recipe for disaster. *If the chemical calls for protection, use safety goggles and protective gloves. Copyright (c) The Janitorial Store (TM)
