ACS Safety Resources: How a Community of ACS Volunteers Shapes Safety
Hunter, Kirk P.; Hill, Robert H., Jr.; Gmurczyk, Marta
Journal of Chemical Education, v98 n1 p25-33 Jan 2021
Chemical safety is a discipline that cuts across all other chemical disciplines and also impacts other laboratory sciences. It is an essential part of chemistry and continues to evolve with the science it supports. This paper provides a short background about ACS's growing involvement with chemical safety education that stems from support from ACS leadership of passionate efforts of volunteers collaborating across many ACS organizations to develop chemical safety resources. ACS provides many chemical safety resources and programs to assist with nearly every aspect of chemical education in support of integration of safety in chemistry curricula, research, and outreach activities. This paper includes a listing of many chemical safety resources available from the ACS at little or no cost. The table of resources identifies the documents (some are printed), their electronic location on the ACS website, their intended audience, the ACS organization that developed the resource, an annotated description of the resource, and the year the current version was published. A glimpse of ongoing chemical safety products under development by ACS and its volunteers is also provided.
