ACTIVITY-WHMIS WHMIS- Workplace Hazardous Material Information System
WHMIS was introduced in 1987 to the Occupational Health & Safety Act of Ontario
WHMIS gives workers the right to know what they are handling
WHMIS applies to importers, manufacturers, and suppliers of hazardous materials
MSDS stands for Material Safety Data Sheet
MSDS must be updated by the supplier every three years
Any controlled hazardous product must be properly labelled with supplier and a workplace
sticker
Four components to WHMIS:
1. Hazards Symbols: pictorials of danger
2. Supplier Label: Identifies the material or product
3. Workplace Labels: Used in the workplace when the product in transferred to a
smaller container.
4. MSDS: Contains detailed information concerning the product
Under WHMIS, workers have the right to know about hazardous materials. Three
components:
Education for workers
Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS)
Labels (supplier and workplace)
The following must be on containers that are not from the supplier, and must contain the
following information:

Workplace Hazards Work Hazards A hazard is anything that can hurt you or make you ill. You face hazards every day — driving, playing sports, or just walking across the street. To protect yourself against workplace hazards you first need to know how to recognize them. Recognizing Hazards A workplace hazard is any condition, practice, or behaviour that could cause injury or illness to a person or damage to property. Types of Injuries and Illness: Acute and Chronic Some hazards — like slippery floors or boiling water — cause injuries right away. But other hazards take longer.
Immediate injuries are called acute. (Examples of acute injuries are burns, fractures, bruises.)
Illnesses that develop over a long period of time are called chronic. (Examples of chronic illnesses include repetitive strain, hearing loss, and cancer.) Types of Hazards How can you recognize the hazards in your workplace? It helps to know that hazards come in several forms. They are generally grouped into four basic types: Physical Hazards include unsafe machines and environmental conditions. Examples are unguarded machine parts like saw blades, constant noise, or prolonged exposure to sun or cold. Biological Hazards are produced by living things. They often come from working with animals and people. Examples include blood, viruses and animal and bird droppings. Chemical Hazards include materials that are flammable, explosive or poisonous. Examples are cleaning products, pesticides and gasoline. Ergonomic Hazards are caused by poorly designed workplaces or processes. Examples are poor lighting, workstations that are too high or low for you or a job that requires you to repeat the same movement over and over.

Ergonomics
“Safety is the state of being "safe" (from French sauf), the condition of being protected against
physical, …, occupational, … or other types or consequences of failure, …, accidents, harm or any
other event which could be considered not desirable.” Source: Wikipedia.org
Ergonomics
Repetitive Work Practices; Back Pain and Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
Repetitive Trauma Disorders; Recognition of Problem Job Factors
Work surfaces too high, low, or far away
Range of motion and force required
Maintaining same position
Reaching below knees or above shoulders
Performing same motion
Working with hands too far from body
Bending wrist too far
Definition
“… deals with the human body's responses to physical and physiological stresses. Relevant topics include manual materials handling,
workstation layout, job demands, and risk factors such as repetition, vibration, force and awkward/static posture as they relate to
musculoskeletal disorders.” Source: Wikipedia.org
Care of Feet
As a cosmetologist you will spend a great deal of time on your feet. Proper foot care will help you
maintain a good posture and a cheerful attitude. Sore feet or poor-fitting shoes can cause great
discomfort.
Shoes
Try to wear shoes with low, broad heels and with cushioned insoles. They give
you support and balance, which help to maintain good posture and offset
fatigue that can result from hours of standing. It also helps if you can stand
on a carpeted or cushioned surface.
Basic safety for teenagers Student Workbook TXJ3E
Credit to various unknown sources Page 27 A.1: ORIENTATION
Daily Foot Care
After bathing, apply cream or oil and massage each foot for 5 minutes. Remove the cream or oil
and apply an antiseptic foot lotion. Regular pedicures that include cleansing, removal of calloused
skin, massage, and toenail trims will keep your feet at their best.
Physical Presentation
Your posture, walk, and movements all make up your physical presentation. People form opinions
about you by the way you present yourself. Do you stand straight or slouch; do you walk confidently
or do you drag your feet? Your physical presentation is part of your professional image.
Good Posture
Good posture not only improves your personal appearance by presenting
your figure to advantage and creating an image of confidence, it also
prevents fatigue and many other physical problems. Because you will be
spending most your time on your feet when working as a professional
cosmetologist, good posture should be developed as early as possible
through regular exercise and self-discipline. See samples below.
Physical presentation on the job
To prevent muscle aches, back strain, discomfort, fatigue and other problems and to maintain an
attractive image, it is important to practice good physical presentation while performing work
activities.
Checkpoints of Good Posture
Crown of head reaching upward while chine is kept level with the floor.
Neck is elongated and balanced directly above the shoulders.
Chest up; body is lifted from the breastbone.
Shoulders are level, held back and down, yet relaxed.
Spine is straight, not curved laterally or swayed from front to back.
Abdomen is flat.
Hips are level (horizontally) and protrude neither forward nor back.
Knees are slightly flexed and positioned directly over the feet with the ankles firm.

Correct Sitting Technique
To sit attractively, use your thigh muscles and support from your hands and arms to lower your
body smoothly into a chair. Do not fall of flop into a chair. When lowering your body, keep your
back straight. Do not bend at the waist or reach with the buttocks. When seated, slide to the back
of the chair by placing both hands on the front edge of the chair at the sides of your hips. Raise your
body slightly and slide back. Do not wiggle or inch back.
When giving a manicure, assume a correct sitting position. Sit
with the lower back against the chair, leaning slightly forward. If a
stool is used, sit on the entire stool. Keep your chest up and rest your
body weight on the full length of your thighs.
