What more can we do?
Wearing correct PPE is a must. But there is more:
• Comply to Shell GOLDEN RULES: Comply – Intervene – Respect
• Comply to LIFE SAVING RULES: If you choose not to follow the LSR you choose not to work for
SIPD
• READ your MSDS or SHOC
• Ensure sufficient ventilation in your working area
• Use buddy-buddy system in case of H2S (never go alone)
• Do never mix chemicals with each other, or with other waste. Chemical go in dedicated waste
containers and are stored separately.
• Proper concrete flooring to avoid spills/leakage into environment
• Bunded area around chemical waste storage (containment of spills)
Transporting
For transportation:
Use pictograms, referred
to as labels in transport
regulations, prescribed by
UN Model Regulations on
the Transport of
Dangerous Goods
