  • Decon
    #DE002 (17 min. 1992)

    Occupational
    Decon provides an explanation and step-by-step demonstration of the accepted principles and procedures for decontamination. It shows how to limit the spread of contaminants, illustrates decon protocol for various levels of personal protective equipment, demonstrates decontamination tools, shows what to do with reusable items, examines contamination reduction zones and explores the application of decon principles to large and small work areas. Presented for all to see the contamination substance, viewers watch as one careless worker goes from work to home and his family, contaminating everything in his path and causing a chain reaction of contamination.
  • Drum Handling
    #DR001 (18 min. 1992)

    Occupational
    This video emphasizes the health and safety issues involved with drum handling. Includes inspecting drums and worksites; handling and moving drums; opening and sampling; characterization and staging; and decontamination.
  • Drum and Other Small Spills: Control, Containment and Clean-up
    #DR015 & #DR016 (18 min. 1987)

    Occupational
    This live-action video provides step-by-step instructions on how to safely contain, control and clean up small spills. Topics covered include notification; personal protective equipment; and puncture, hole and crack repair.
  • Emergency Instructions: First Response to Commercial Explosives
    #EM016 (25 min. 1987)

    Occupational
    This video by the Institute of Makers of Explosives explains what the first responder to the scene of an accident involving commercial explosives should do to protect public safety and self. Dis-cusses identification and safe transport and handling of hazardous materials.
  • Emergency Response
    #EM001 (12 min. 1995)

    Occupational
    This video provides guidance for responding to emergencies in the modern biology laboratory. It will introduce new staff to appropriate emergency response procedures and provide a general review in emergency response for the more experienced laboratory worker.
  • Emergency Response
    #EM003 (12 min. 1997)

    Occupational
    This video provides guidance for responding to emergencies in the modern biology laboratory. It will introduce new staff to appropriate emergency response procedures and provide a general review in emergency response for the more-experienced laboratory worker. Procedures presented are:
    • Laboratory fire
    • Radiation spill
    • Chemical spill
    • Biological spill
    • Personal injury
    • Clothing on fire

    • Cleanup procedures
  • Hazwoper Awareness Training: Your Role as a First Responder
    #HA021 (18 min. 1991)

    Occupational
    The hazwoper regulation recognizes that anyone working where hazardous materials are used or stored can be first on the scene in an emergency. This fast-paced video instructs viewers in hazard recognition and the actions necessary to prevent injury, loss of life and damage to property and the environment in the event of a release or spill of hazardous material
  • Monitoring Airborne Contaminants
    #MO005 (10 min. 1993)

    Occupational
    This video covers: measuring direct reading versus lab analysis, advantages and limitations of on-site direct readings; four types of site monitoring and their purposes and information derived; and personal monitoring and exposure variables.
  • MSA Research—Vapor Suppression
    #MS015 (8 min. 1989)

    Occupational
    Using test spills, MSA demonstrates the effectiveness of foam agents in controlling vapor releases from hazardous chemical spills.
  • Spills Happen
    #SP002, #SP003 (22 min. 1988)

    Occupational
    This video describes each aspect of small spill response and includes several scenarios. Topics covered include: spill assessment, control, containment and clean-up; and decon.
  • Tightrope
    #TI001 (12 min. 1992)

    Occupational
    This video presents an informative and motivational look at the common nonchemical, physical hazards often encountered by hazardous waste workers. It illustrates how to recognize potentially dangerous situations and avoid safety hazards such as slips, falls, electrical hazards, natural hazards, oxygen deficiency and heat stress. It urges workers to take special precautions to allow for limited mobility and communication when wearing personal protective equipment.
  • Toxicology
