      The risk of exposure is a regular term used in laboratories and facilities.  While there are always administrative and engineering controls in place to protect you, and your coworkers, there can be situations where these events may still fail. Usually, the culprit is an unsafe act which results in a chain reaction of events leading to the potential of exposure to a chemical agent.  These events are typically the day-to-day workplace tasks you complete each day.  However, there is a last line of defense: personal protective equipment.  This is the proper attire you need to wear to protect yourself and is critical to working safely.
