what should you do if chemicals splash onto your arm?
wash the area with soap and water
jump into the safety shower and stand under it for 15 minutes
quickly wipe the area with a paper towel
When chemicals splash onto your arm, the best - practice is to immediately flush the area with large amounts of water to dilute and remove the chemical. A safety shower provides a large - volume water source for this purpose and standing under it for 15 minutes helps ensure thorough removal of the chemical. Washing with soap can sometimes react with the chemical or cause irritation if the chemical is still present, and wiping with a paper towel can spread the chemical and cause more harm.
