The start of a new year is the perfect time for safety managers to review workplace eyewash implementation and the standards for its use. Hazardous materials or chemicals exist in nearly every workplace that necessitate the presence of primary emergency eyewash stations.
When it comes to eye injuries, immediate treatment is the best defense against long-term vision loss and lost time at work. Employers that choose the proper eyewash fluid and delivery system can not only reduce the severity of eye injuries but also the direct and indirect costs related to them.
