Proper Dress and PPE / Lab Safety Video Part 1

For general lab work, a lab coat, safety glasses or goggles, and gloves are required. (Watch all 6 lessons on YouTube:    • Lab Safety   ) The lab environment is hazardous by nature. The actual risk is largely determined by you and those working with you. It's your responsibility to know and follow the rules and be able to recognize potential safety hazards.
