The information contained in this section is very basic. It is intended to be used in providing emergency first aid for conditions of contact with petroleum, concrete/cement, and asphalt based materials.
Although the Safety Data Sheets (SDSs) have the information necessary to inform trained medical specialists in the treatment of an emergency, the situation may occur when an employee may need to quickly know first aid facts, and be able to administer care that may be essential in saving a life.
Please read the few items below very carefully. Fortunately, many people may find that this information, as well as any CPR and first aid certification training, may become surprisingly automatic in the event of a real emergency. Above all, remember not to panic in the event of any emergency. Stay calm, in order to preserve the greatest opportunity to be effective in bringing an emergency under control.
In all cases, get immediate professional medical attention as soon as the emergency measures have been taken.
As a supplement, it may be advisable to use the separate topics below as additional subjects of Superintendent’s Tailgate Safety Meetings. These short, regular meetings can be an excellent forum for routinely bringing this information to the attention of all company employees.
