Material Safety Data Sheets are required by local, city, county, state and the federal government so that employees can learn if they are using dangerous materials.\n\nThe company must tell the employees if they are using dangerous chemicals or products.\n\nAny contractor working at your home also has to provide you with this information.\n\nAnd if you are working with chemicals at home, it is required that the company that sells you the product have the information available. For instance if you buy a wallpaper remover chemical at a paint store, you can ask for the safety sheet when you buy it.\n\nIf you have a business in your home, you may be required to keep safety sheets on file, even if you are the only employee.\n\nIf you are an artist working with dangerous chemicals, you may need a permit from a local or other government agency, and you will be required to show these documents.\n\nBest wishes.

You really are supposed to ask questions here.  I hope you follow the rules set forth at your job better than you do here.  If not, that might be the reason your customers are "out of sorts".  That and the long wait to get to a teller.

What you just said would be good enough reason. If there are unsafe work condition, then that gives the potential for people to get hurt. That is a lawsuit waiting to happen. How bad are the work conditions? If I were I would take it up with the Better Business Bureau if it is serious enough..but if you have already quit, I don't understand why you need another reason?

When you have a neighborhood with a high rate of joblessness you are faced with a populace who becomes more concerned with a roof over their head and food on the table than any more esoteric concerns......referring back to Maslow's hierarchy of needs----safety issues and basic physical issues come before abstractions.  Its hard to get excited about say, litter or vandalism or even school or tax issues when you are worried about feeding your family.

If you are paid hourly, you have a good argument against your employer, however, it could take a long while to get compensation.  On the other hand, if you are payed a salary, your company can bypass the law.  Also, if you are salaried, you may want to read the fine print in your hire paperwork.  It can provide alot of useful information on specific guidlines for your company. In addition, you must consider that it is the employee's choice to read the E-mail from home!

It sounds as if your employer best not be told that you are unaware of the needs to complete your task.  Why not ask, otherwise?

Depending on your age, you could claim illness of you or family member.  Or disability, (I got out of a couple of jobs claiming disability).  I never got a job that demanded a contract, though.  Or, you might claim another job back home.  One that pays better and is in a better enviroment.  But, I think I'd claim illness in the family.  Most people are pretty sympathetic to that, I think.

Unless there's blood or other bodily fluids they are just laundred and issued to the next person.  If there's blood or other fluids then yes OSHA regulations come into play, but they'd just toss the shirt instead of reusing it.  It's no different then the person going home, washing his shirt and rewearing it, it's just that a different person ends up rewearing it.

This situation depends on your contract with your employer.  Usually it is spelled out. Understand that if you are under doctors orders to stay home, and they insist you work, and something bad happens....that creates a tort.  You could sue them and win.\n\nSo, to prevent this from happening, various employers have strict rules about this sort of thing.  Most will not allow employees to work if they don't have medical clearance (ie a doctor says its not ok to work there).  Ask your boss's boss.  Likely, your boss is doing something against company policy.

You should be aware that OSHA Has adopted regulations to avoid accidental needlesticks to prevent the transmission of disease between patients and health staffs.  There are now many competing designs.

Depends, my boss always catches me at Yahoo Answers too. But my boss says we can do other stuff as long as our work is done, I do my work, so my boss doesn't have a problem with it. There are some bosses who want to see their employees working, even if it's not really needed.

Go to the Manufacturerr's Website, should be listed on package or bottle.  If not, Google the Mfr Name.\n\nOn their website, do search on MSDS <item name>\n\nMay be PDF, sometimes they will mail it, especially if you tell them you are a good customer.
