Eye Wash and Safety Shower Awareness (Microlearning)

EYE-1.2

The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) requires workers that could be exposed to corrosive chemicals have an eyewash or emergency shower in their work area. Eyewashes and emergency showers are used to flush corrosive chemicals out of peoples' eyes and off affected parts of their bodies if necessary. Acting quickly after a chemical splash can help avoid serious injury, so workers need to know where those facilities are and how to use them. Learners who successfully complete this course should be able to identify requirements for eyewash stations and emergency showers, and recognize procedures for using and maintaining eyewashes and emergency showers.
