Stay Safe While Handling Chemicals: The Best Health and Safety Apps for Workers

Regularly working with chemicals, whether in a lab or industrial environment, is an inherently hazardous activity. But there are ways to reduce the risk of injury or illness caused by exposure to these substances. One such way is to use health and safety apps that can provide guidance for proper chemical handling safety. In this blog post, we will discuss some of the best available, how they can help keep you safe, and why they should be part of your safety arsenal.

Health and Safety Apps for Workers in the Chemical Industry

When it comes to working with hazardous substances, there are a variety of workers who may come into contact with them. These include laboratory technicians, industrial workers, chemists, chemical engineers and other professionals who work in hazardous environments.

No matter what type of worker you are, having the right tools on hand can make all the difference. Health and safety apps can be used to help identify potential risks associated with exposure to various types of harmful chemicals and provide valuable safety information for working with chemicals.

There are several apps for safety available to workers in the chemical industry that can increase their safety while handling hazardous substances:

Hazardous Substance Database (HSDB)

The first of these is the Hazardous Substance Database (HSDB), a searchable database of hazardous elements, compounds, mixtures and products commonly found in workplaces using chemical-based processes or products. It provides information about each substance’s physical properties, health effects, combustible properties and more so users can quickly look up information about any chemical they may encounter.

Chemical Exposure Risk Calculator (CERC)

The second app we recommend is the Chemical Exposure Risk Calculator (CERC). This handy tool helps identify potential risks associated with exposure to various types of harmful chemicals based on user input variables such as concentration levels and duration of exposure time frames. The app also features an interactive graph showing the calculated risk level when exposed to different concentrations over extended periods of time.

Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) Lookup

There’s the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) Lookup app which allows users to access important information regarding hazardous substances including their physical properties, health effects, first aid instructions, and more from an extensive library containing over 400 MSDS documents created by U.S., Canadian, and European standards organizations worldwide. This comprehensive resource ensures that users have all the pertinent facts at their fingertips when dealing with potentially hazardous materials or situations.

ERG (Emergency Response Guidebook) App

In case of a hazardous materials emergency, the 2016 PHMSA (U.S. Department of Transportation Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration) ERG (Emergency Response Guidebook) App is an invaluable resource for first responders to refer to in the crucial initial half hour.

At Axiom Products, we developed our chemical safety products to provide users with everything they need to safely handle, work with, and dispose of chemicals.

This app is compatible with any HTML5-compatible web browser, and can even be used without an internet connection. Its Industrial Hygiene content from the NIOSH helps users identify and manage potential risks posed by chemical exposure in their work environment.

First Aid by American Red Cross App

The American Red Cross has created a First Aid app that gives instant access to lifesaving information, videos, and interactive quizzes. It’s the perfect tool for anyone looking to improve workplace safety in any industry.
