Chemical Safety Handbook
Introduction
The health, safety and well‐being of the university community and the protection of the environment are of utmost importance to the University. Through various functions, University of Guelph personnel are responsible for the handling, use and storage of potentially hazardous chemical products. In order to address the health, safety and environmental challenges specific to the usage of hazardous chemicals outside of laboratory environments, this handbook, and the encompassing guidelines and procedures, have been developed. This handbook is to provide supplemental information to the University of Guelph and departmental health and safety policies as well as define minimum standards for safe practices at the University. Workers involved in laboratory work should refer to the Laboratory Safety Manual for more detailed direction on chemical safety in the laboratory. Our goal is a safe and healthy environment for faculty, staff, students and visitors.

Safety Guide For Work In Manholes
Introduction
Working near or in a manhole inherits potential dangers which may result in serious accidents. The common ones include falls/slips, fire or explosion, oxygen depletion, gas poisoning, heat stress, drowning, asphyxiation arising from gas, fume, vapor, and entrapment by free-flowing solid. Amongst these, dangers involving gases are easily overlooked or neglected, leading to serious casualties. This guide aims to remind persons entering or working in a manhole to take appropriate measures, including measures for the prevention of oxygen depletion and gas poisoning. ‘‘Certified workers’’ (Note 1) must be familiar with the ‘Code of Practice – Safety and Health at Work in Confined Spaces, and before entering a manhole, they must take all the necessary safety precautions to ensure safety at work
