Hygiene measures:

Consider double gloving.
Wear safety glasses with side shields or goggles.
If the work environment or activity involves dusty conditions,mists or aerosols, wear the appropriate goggles.
Wear a faceshield or other full face protection if there is apotential for direct contact to the face with dusts, mists, oraerosols.
Work uniform or laboratory coat.
Additional body garments should be used based upon the task
being performed (e.g., sleevelets, apron, gauntlets, disposable
suits) to avoid exposed skin surfaces.
Use appropriate degowning techniques to remove potentiallycontaminated clothing.
If exposure to chemical is likely during typical use, provide eye
flushing systems and safety showers close to the working
place.
When using do not eat, drink or smoke.
Wash contaminated clothing before re-use.
The effective operation of a facility should include review ofengineering controls, proper personal protective equipment,
appropriate degowning and decontamination procedures,industrial hygiene monitoring, medical surveillance and theuse of administrative controls.
