In 1988,
the Georgia legislature passed a law protecting the right of all
state employees to know about the hazardous compounds they may encounter
in the workplace. Waycross College supports the right of faculty,
staff, and students:
- to
be aware of possible chemical hazards at the college,
- to
be trained in safe handling techniques for chemicals they may
regulary encounter in their jobs or in the laboratory,
- to
receive pertinent, useful, and timely information about hazardous
compounds,
- to
refuse to enter a work situation or to handle a hazardous compound
without proper training and without fear of reprisal or disciplinary
action.
