NIOSH Pocket Guide

Back

The National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) Chemical Hazards Pocket Guide App provides a concise source of general industrial hygiene information for workers, employers, and occupational health professionals.

The industrial hygiene information found in the Pocket Guide App assists users to recognize and control occupational chemical hazards.
This includes :

•  Recommendations for respirator selection

•  NIOSH/OSHA Recommended Exposure Limits

•  Emergency procedures for eye and skin contact, inhalation, and ingestion of the toxic substance

•  A summary of recommended personal protection and sanitation practices for each substance

•  Chemical and Physical Properties : molecular weight, boiling point, solubility in water, flash point ...


As a fully tested and recommended application by Laboratory Safety personnel, you will find it easy to use with full use of the iPhone's native look and feel throughout.

Features:

•  Fully indexed and searchable chemical list by name, CAS# or RTECS#

•  Full text of all DOT Emergency Response Guides

•  Viewable International Chemical Safety Cards (PDF)

•  All NIOSH appendices

•  Saved History of previously view chemicals

•  Native look & feel throughout

•  No Internet connection required

HazMat Reference and Emergency Response Guide

The HazMat Reference and Emergency Response Guide iPhone/iPod app serves as a quick reference and educational tool for employees that are involved with the regular handling, storage or incident response of Hazardous Materials.


Materials from the Hazardous Material Table (HMT) and Emergency Response Guidebook (ERG) are listed in easy to review form with advanced search, sort and filter capabilities. Pertinent information from the HMT, ERG, NIOSH and other sources are listed with the proper placard and hazard class for each material.


No internet connection required.


Find materials by name or UN Identifier.


Additional Features:

•  History of materials - most recent or most viewed

•  NFPA FIre Diamond : quick visual ref for Health, Fire, Reactivity and other hazards

•  Physical descriptions for most chemcials

•  CAS#, RTECS# with NIOSH IDLH and exposure information

•  Quick sort by UN ID#, guide #, name or number of incidents

•  Filter/Sort Materials with DOT Reported Incidents in the last 12 months

Chemical Safety Data Sheets

This application displays International Chemical Safety Cards [ICSC] produced by the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), the International Labour Office (ILO), and the World Health Organization (WHO).

ICSCs summarize essential health and safety information on chemicals for their use at the "shop floor" level by workers and employers in factories, agriculture, construction and other work places.

An ICSC is very similar to an Material Safety Data Sheet [MSDS].

An MSDS is a standard reference document from the manufacturer for chemical information and is required, for safety purposes, to be kept in any place where workers face possible exposure to those chemicals.

While an MSDS has many positives such as being very thorough and manufacturer specific, there are drawbacks : they can be very lengthy (the MSDS for water is 5 pages long), they have no standard format and may be technically very complex and too extensive for non-management use.

ICSCs, on the other hand, set out peer-reviewed information about substances in a more concise, standard and simple manner on 1 or 2 page documents that is always the same format. They consist of a series of standard phrases, mainly summarizing health and safety information collected, verified and peer reviewed by internationally recognized experts, taking into account advice from manufacturers and Poison Control Centres.

Use the information in this app to augment occupational health and safety when working with the applicable chemicals as an adjunct to MSDS or when MSDS are unavailable.

For more NIOSH information, including respirator recommendations, physical properties and hygenie information, please see our NIOSH Chemical Hazards Pocket Guide [NPG]. All information in the NPG app is viewable in a native, easily viewed format designed for the iPhone/iPodTouch.

iVirus

Back


Interact with icons like never before! Your Apple device won't get infected by an actual virus, so the only way to get a virus is to buy one! iVirus is a playful demonstration of viral behaviour, without all the negative side effects.

Watch icons float, collide and respond to gravity as you rotate your phone, touch and fling them.

iVirus is a uniquely, entertaining application with the following features :

•  Fling icons and watch them collide and bounce.

•  Shake to reset icons back to their initial location.

•  Utilize custom screenshots of your own.

•  Adjust the gravity and fluidity of the simulation.

•  No iPhones or Apple devices were harmed in any way during the creation of this virus.

•  Entertains you during boring meetings as it randomly animates icons without your interaction.

•  Entertains you during really boring meetings by allowing you to interact with the icons.

•  Costs less than a cup of coffee.
