Safety Data Sheets: The Information Connection

Guessing the safest way to work with or around a chemical can be very dangerous. If you don't know how to handle a substance properly, you could end up with chemical burns, breathing problems, fires or even explosions. Instead of guessing, employees should use the Safety Data Sheet, or SDS.
