glass linings on steel or metal alloy reaction vessels to ensure there are no cracks or holes which might allow contact of incompatible materials with the metal vessel.
    * Regular checking of bursting (rupture) discs and pressure-relief systems on pressure vessels
      to ensure they have not "blown" and are of the correct pressure rating for the work being performed. Bursting or rupture discs are safety features of cylinders that prevent damage
      or injury from over-pressurisation.
    * Checking spill bunding walls for cracks or other signs of wear to ensure that, in the event
      of a spill, the bunding will not leak or fail.
    * Checking for signs of corrosion or degradation on tanks, pipework and compressed
      gas fittings.
If preventative maintenance checks show that the integrity of any chemical handling system is
in doubt or not performing as it is intended, repair or replacement of the faulty system should be carried out as soon as practicable and before its next use.

4.4 Providing information, training, instruction and supervision

Regulation 39: A person conducting a business or undertaking must ensure that information, training and instruction provided to a worker is suitable and adequate having regard to:
    * the nature of the work carried out by the worker
    * the nature of the risks associated with the work at the time the information, training
      or instruction is provided, and
    * the control measures implemented.
Regulation 379: The person conducting a business or undertaking must also provide any supervision necessary to protect workers from health and safety risks arising from the work
at the workplace, if the worker:
    * uses, handles, generates or stores a hazardous chemical
    * operates, tests, maintains, repairs or decommissions a storage or handling system
      for a hazardous chemical, or
    * is likely to be exposed to a hazardous chemical.
Information, training, instruction and supervision must be provided not only to workers but to other persons at the workplace such as visitors.
Information, training and instruction should include the following:
    * the nature of the hazardous chemicals involved and the risks to the worker
    * the control measures implemented, how to use and maintain them correctly, for example how and when to clean or replace filters on a spray painting booth
    * the arrangements in place to deal with emergencies, including evacuation procedures, containing and cleaning up spills and first aid instructions
    * the selection, use, maintenance and storage of any personal protective equipment (PPE) required to control risks and the limitations of the PPE
    * any health monitoring which may be required and the worker's rights and obligations
    * the labelling of containers of hazardous chemicals, the information that each part of the label provides and why the
