maintenance chemical storage
Posted: 28 Nov 2013, 07:42
Hi everyone,
We had our WHS meeting yesterday and were wondering whether we need a flammable goods cupboard for maintenance? they have petrol, methylated spirits, thinners and paints etc.
all the normal stuff found in maintenance.
The maintenance dept keeps these chemicals in a shed away from the school but the cleaners chemicals are kept in the maintenance office. does anyone know whether legally we require the flameproof cupboards or not?
we do have flame cupboards in lab, creative arts and TAS depts.
Do you all have flammable cupboards in the maintenance dept?
Thanks Superbug
