You must at least be able to identify potential hazards and implement the controls necessary to eliminate or minimize them. Its the law. When it comes to cleaning chemistry the blind eye turned to it is friggin phenominal. Oxidizers, rust removers and dry solvents are the tip of the iceberg. How about the leading carpet prespray in North America? It contains butyl cellusolve (which goes by many different names) CAS # 111-76-2 has a TWAEL of 20PPM to the skin. Yes ma'am our soap is safe to your children and pets. OMG. |

You gusy want to clean carpet or not? If you don't use ANY chemicals, then turn off the water too, that has all kinds of hazards in it. Good grief, you are being PAID to KNOW what you are doing and to REMOVE thier soil and stains. |

PadMan: I guess soon all we will be able to do is vacuum. I think we will probably have to use the customer's vac so we don't cross contaminate.

Every year our understanding of what is hazardous both to us and our world changes. I just think it's wise to be careful how one uses and applies ANY product. If you want to decrease the chem part of the cleaning pie, without big increases in the time part. Then clearly temp or agitation are the parts to increase. Temp often involves a lot of fossil fuel. One big plus for Cimex or OP cleaning. Think of YOUR grandkids.

Jackblack, its called having a conscience. Since I know better, I choose to do what is right. The principles of occupational health and safety are quite clear. When possible you should always protect the worker with engineering or administrative controls. PPE is a last resort. Butyl Cellusolve is on the schedule 1 list of chemicals to be (possibly) outlawed by the Canadian government. You think there might be something there bud. Then there is the customer too. Maybe you should be concerned with their health too. |
