Description

Broken glassware causes more laboratory accidents than any other hazard. Because it is so fragile, glassware can easily fracture if it is bumped, dropped or too much pressure is applied to it. Some glassware accidents don’t require much more than a band-aid, while others can result in a lot of blood and the need for medical attention. Broken glassware in the laboratory also brings with it the real threat of contamination from the materials housed in the container.

This training course on the safe handling of laboratory glassware helps your employees understand the nature and problems of various types of common glassware, as well as the correct procedures for working with glassware safely.
