THE WILDEST DREAMS HAVE A WAY
OF COMING TRUE.
Just a remmderthat planning for tomorrow's possibilities is not only a very important but also a very exciting part of today's work.
That's why we are developing unique products for water-borne, hot melts, and other new adhesive and sealant technologies.
And why we have an entire department dedicated to serving nearly every segment of your industry.
it's why we're maintaining our position as a leading supplier of oxygenated solvents.
And at the same time helping our customers reformulate to meet both short- and long-term
pollution control standards. Our research and development
teams are dedicated to developing a wide variety of products, appli cations and techniques to meet a broader range of customer needs and expectations.
And we're expanding our ability to distribute efficiently as well as provide prompt and personal technical service. We already have five full-service regional latex plants. Soon there'll be more.
You see, we expect the future to be full of surprises for some people. Andfilled with opportunities for others.

Robert W. Wesson
Vice-President and General Manager Coatings and Adhesives Materials Dept. Union Carbide Corporation
I t is a privilege for Union Carbide to cooperate with Ad
hesives Age in publishing this OSHA checklist. OSHA has come a long wav in a short time. The OSHA stan
dards are now very sophisticated. But in their very sophistica tion lies a serious paradox -- the difficulty of unraveling all the new regulations, and then following them.
We at Union Carbide hope the accompanying checklist, sum marizing the OSHA regulations, will be of value to harried adhesives manufacturing people.
The checklist provides a wa\ to follow OSHA standards, and that is important because the standards have become extremely comprehensive and we are ail obliged to follow them.
Of course, regulations alone don't make a safe plant. Effec tive safety programs are needed to ensure that accidents in the workplace are held to a minimum. Employees at every level must be conscious of good safety practice. Union Carbide has long had many committees and groups, at various levels, working in the health and safety area. Recently. Union Carbide estab lished a new corporate department called the Health. Safety and Environmental Affairs Department.
The new department will develop an advanced corporate epidemiological program, computerize industrial hygiene and health records, monitor the worldwide environmental impact analysis system, ensure adherence to medical standards, and de velop new corporate systems dealing with product safety. Data generated by this department will be made available to our dis tributors and customers, and to anyone in the adhesives industry who might benefit from it.
Union Carbide's emphasis on safety has paid off in the past. For example, the number of our disabling injuries is now less than one-quarter the industrial average. Our Chemicals & Plastics group rating -- which includes the Coatings and Ad hesives Materials Department -- is actually six times better than the average.
Sound safety practices and good business go hand in hand. And like other companies, we take many approaches to attack safety problems. If someone has a better way to protect people -- whether it is OSHA. a competitor or an employee -- we will incorporate the improvement into our operations.
We at Union Carbide seek out every opportunity to cooperate with government and industry so that we can all be safer. I recently gave a talk entitled "Beyond Safety Regulations." in w'hich I pointed out how we worked closely with OSHA in providing safety information. I thought you might like to read some of the highlights; they are reproduced on the following pages.

Beyond Safety Regulations
BY ROBERT W. WESSON
1 hough many company records, including Union Carbide's, show that employees are safer at work than at home, as long as lives and limbs are being lost in the plant, industry cannot rest on its excellent safety records or regulations.
At Union Carbide, improving safety is a goal that everyone is constantly striving to achieve.
are rated for their toxicological properties. Much of this work is done at the CarnegieMeilon Institute of Research in Pittsburgh. Penna.
Union Carbide has long benefited from the services of this toxicology research laboratory. It was nearly 40 years ago that Union Carbide established its Chemical Hygiene Fellowship at the Mellon Institute. This was a full year before the enactment of the Food. Drug and Cosmetic Act. which required testing of food additives and other products that might be harmful.
4,000 Compounds Tested
During the ensuing four decades, the Fellowship has grown from a two-man opera tion to a staff of over 35. To date, over 4.000 compounds have been assayed to delineate
It is a way of life that begins with upper man agement. In addition to a corporate safety department and its committees, each division or operating unit of the Corporation has a safe ty and health organization devoted to its own particular needs. The Chemicals & Plastics people organized a group known as SHARE, which falls under the direction of a vice president. The name is derived from safety, health and affairs related to the environment. SHARE further ensures that Union Carbide's Chemicals &. Plastics operations meet all aspects of the Federal Occupational Safety and Health Act.
Union Carbide is extremely cautious with newly developed chemicals and resins. Before manufacture or use in plants, new substances
their toxicological properties. Each chemical is examined to answer the following:
Under what conditions can the compound be manufactured without injury to plant per sonnel? Can it be shipped without special han

procrams For example, results or the work
done at Cunegie-Melion by the Chemical H\c;ene Fellowship are made available to the
sci entitle com.mumtv through publication and
sharing of information. Produet literature rou-
tin.elv includes precautionary labeling informa
tion. toxicological properties. FDA and EPA
status where applicable, and special handling
procedures when necessary.
Development of MSD Sheets
Another advance of which Union Carbide is proud is the development of its Material SafetyData (MSD) Program -- perhaps the largest single endeavor undertaken to provide our cus tomers and our customers' customers with per tinent safetv data.
In ! 970, the Department of Labor mandated that MSD sheets be issued on all hazardous products sold to the ship repairing, ship building and shipbreaking industries (the socalled 3-S industries). These sheets were to be retained at the job site by those using the prod ucts. While safety data have always been published on Union Carbide's products, these new require/nents were more detailed and were specific to these three industries.
Beyond Government Programs
The first Department of Labor MSD regula tion came out on July i. 1970. Union Carbide meanwhile had outdistanced the government program both in time and in scope. By that time, the company had already devised its own modified MSD sheets -- actually more comprehensive than required -- which the Department of Labor approved on June 20. 1970, Union Carbide's first MSD sheet was issued a few months later. Since that time, over 600 sheets have been issued covering an enor mous variety of products going into many dif ferent industries. Eventually, an MSD sheet will be issued on every product produced -- even on those not officially considered hazard ous. This program is much too valuable to limit its use to the legal requirements of the man date.
When a request is made for a new MSD sheet by customers, distributors or internally, a
;eam m experts, from chemists to lawyers, col laborates on developing a sheet that is as dear and helpful as possible. These sheets are so carefully cone -- so comprehensive and dear -- that many other companies, and even OSHA. use them as models.
To gather the phvsicai data. Union Carbide's labs do extensive testing in areas such as haz ardous ingredients, fire and e.\pjosion. health, reactoitv. spill or leak procedures, special pro tection and soecial precautions. As a result, much more is included in the data sheets than is required bv current OSHA regulations. On each data sheet a list of phone numbers is in cluded so that Union Carbide safety experts can provide assistance at any time, day or night.
Not only is a major effort made to prepare the sheets, but also to have them widely distrib
uted and used. Customers are encouraged, via direct contact, newsletters, seminars, etc., to ask for the sheets. They can be obtained either through Union Carbide's sales force or distrib utors. Special binders are provided for conve nient filing and efficient retrieval of informa tion.
A comprehensive index, which lists all sheets issued to date, is also provided for ready refer ence. Holders of MSD binders automatically receive an updafed index as soon as it is issued. And. of course, ai! MSD sheets are systemat ically reviewed for updating and/or revisions.
The MSD Program is only one of many recent efforts to make industry safer. Union Carbide is dedicated to the continued up grading of all safety programs. Our lives depend on it.

T he Occupational Safety and Health Act has far-reaching
implications tor all who engage in the manufacture of gooes or who provide commercial services. In the adhesives industry, which is but a single segment of all U.S. industrial activity. OSHA has received a great deal of attention ar.d has been the subject of many hours of discussion and planning within individ ual companies and by industry organizations.
Nevertheless, the very scope of the Act has made its comprehension a formidable undertaking for harried manage ment in the average adhesives manufacturing company. The ev eryday concerns of bustness operations, the many environmental regulations that demand compliance, and a host of hazardous material and consumer safety controls ieave little of manage ment's working time for concentration on so broad and all.nclusive a subject as the safety of workers in the manufacturing environment.
With these considerations in mind, the staff of Adhesives Ace has undertaken to provide adhesives management with a working checklist of what is required to achieve compliance with the Occupational Safety and Health Act. \r, compiling this checklist, we have reviewed the provisions of the Act and have culled out those that most directly apply to such installa tions as may be found in the adhesives industry. The checklist in this fold-out insert is intended to spotlight the most common areas of safety concern for adhesives plants; it is not intended to be a complete digest of the entire Act.
We strongly urge company management to obtain complete copies of the OSHA Standards, and to become familiar with then. Perhaps the Pest way is to secure a subscription to the OSHA Standards service provided by the U.S. Government Print ing Office. Washington. D.C. 20402. At a one-time cost of S2I.0C, such a subscription furnishes a complete copy of the Act. plus all cnanges as they are enacted from time to time.
The Adhesives Age OSHA compliance checklist has been referenced to provide management with a guide to the sections of the Act that apply to the areas covered. With a copy of the Standards in hand, the plant manager can tell at a glance what safety measures must be taken, and where to find the appropriate regulations.
One word of caution: It is impossible to anticipate every man ufacturing situation and every plant feature. Where conditions not covered by the checklist exist, a thorough search cf the OSHA Standards must be carried out by plant management, in order to accurately determine specific compliance requirements.
Safetv in the workplace :s everyone's business. We trust that
this OSHA checklist will assist adhesives management in the performance of this important obligation.
We at Adhesives Age welcome the participation of the Coatings and Adhesives Materials Department of Union Carbide Corporation as the sponsor of this special fold-out OSHA com pliance checklist. The long history of devotion to hig.i safety standards at Union Carbide makes i: most appropriate for that company to join in this effort toward the achievement of higher safety standards for the entire adhesives industry.
