When handling hazardous chemicals where do you find information for your safety?

An container of hazardous materials must state safety instructions on the label. Any such hazardous materials must have been assessed by the company or employer before using in any manufacturing process, and any relevant safety information must be passed on to the employee as part of the training. As following safety regulations in the workplace is compulsory by law (at least in the UK), anyone (employer or employee) could find themselves in serious trouble should an accident occur.

Addition note: Not only is the correct and safe use of hazardous materials important, but just as important is the safe disposal of any hazardous waste.
