Laboratory Accidents Prevention – Your Top Priority

Any work place is prone to accidents due to human or other circumstances beyond one’s control. However laboratory poses a greater potential for accidents due to:

• Presence of hazardous, toxic, flammable, corrosive and poisonous materials
• Exposure to hazards such as fires, electric shocks, mechanical machinery and heavy loads

工作场所的安全是培训计划和研讨会的主题主题。实验室安全电子课程处理其长度，并提供预防实验室事故的建议。

The objective of the present article is to go into the causes of such accidents and why it becomes necessary to adopt preventive measures to avoid such unfortunate happenings.

在进行进一步之前，有必要强调安全实践所忽视的原因。

过度自信

这是一个常见的说法，“事故不会发生 - 它们是造成的”。这在很大程度上是真实的，因为过度信心导致蔑视和侧链的趋势并忽视了安全实践的标准操作程序。

Ignorance

另一方面的无知也是不思潮的主要贡献者。实验室管理人员和老年人责任在新进入在实验室举行之前提供安全培训

Work Stress

由于规划差导致恐惧实验室生产力放缓而导致的工作压力。这种感觉会导致在安全规范和实践中缺乏捷径的趋势。工作压力更大，更大的是进行常规活动的粗心程度。因此，必须提前规划日常活动并提前安排基本要求

糟糕的工作计划

It is not possible for the chemist to change laboratory design layout but you can certainly contribute to prevention of accidents by adopting tidiness and improving order around your workbench. Ensure all reagents are returned to their designated places after use, do not leave bottles uncapped, there should be no dangling electrical wires or tubes, gas cylinders should be kept properly secured and passages kept free for unrestricted movement.

现在，我们将呼吁遵守安全规范的原因。

Injuries and loss of life

每个实验室工作人员都负责他的安全以及其他人在他身边工作的安全。有点粗心可以证明是昂贵的，甚至可以让你或他人身体受损。

经济损失

Accidents can lead to financial loss to the laboratory or to your own self. In case the scale of accidents is serious they can even lead to closure of operations for some time if not permanently. Laboratory can claim damages partially through保险索赔但是，您的身体职能的永久减值可能是对您的职业目标的大大打击。

A major accident can extend the damage to neighbouring establishments and in such situations the laboratory can be held responsible for third party damages.

It is clear that under no circumstances there can be a compromise on laboratory safety. It is equally important to understand and follow safe laboratory procedures. Safety should become a habit and there should be no need for enforcement.
