Query about the health and safety in the labs at my school?!


Question: I am in year 10 and in my science labs at school (I live in the UK), we often use harmful chemicals and sometimes even corrosive chemicals. After seeing some of the health and safety guidelines for labs in the US, I wonder: should we be wearing protective disposable gloves while handling these chemicals? We always use our bare hands: is that legal?

Thanks. Could you also verify what kind of glove we should be using if so!

the guide line must followed --not knowing only--also school authorities may not permit you to handle such a chemical of dangerous nature with out supervision--you must have your own protective armours
