Course Details
Chlorine safety awareness is crucial due to its toxic, reactive, and corrosive nature. Workers handling chlorine should wear proper PPE, ensure adequate ventilation, and store it safely away from incompatible materials. In case of exposure or spills, immediate evacuation, first aid, and emergency response are essential. Regular training, safety drills, and the use of chlorine gas detectors help in early detection and prevention of accidents. Adhering to regulatory standards and maintaining proper documentation also play a vital role in ensuring safety.
