Publication date: Available online 7 November 2017 Source:Journal of Chemical Health and Safety Author(s): Monona Rossol This paper, written for chemists, summarizes personal observations in the theatrical industry and in art and theater schools over a working life time. These observations are used as the basis for developing the opinion that there has been little or no significant progress in safer handling and use of chemical products and art materials in schools over the years. Suggestions for improving chemical safety are covered which include providing (1) better training, (2) safer facilities and (3) better enforcement of chemical safety rules in schools.
