ENGINE OILS

WARNING

Prolonged, repeated contact with mineral oil will result in the removal of natural fats from the
skin, leading to dryness, irritation and dermatitis. In addition, used engine oil contains
potentially harmful contaminants which may cause skin cancer. Adequate means of skin
protection and washing facilities must be provided.

Recommended Precautions
The most effective precaution is to adapt working
practices which prevent, as far as practicable, the
risk of skin contact with mineral oils. For example;
Use enclosed systems for handling used engine oil
and decrease components, where practicable,
before handling them.
Other precautions:

•

Avoid prolonged and repeated contact with oils,
particularly used engine oils.

•

Wear protective clothing, including impervious
gloves where practicable.

•

Avoid contaminating clothes with oil.

•

Do not put oily rags in pockets.

•

Do not wear heavily soiled clothing and oil-
impregnated foot wear. Work clothing must be
cleaned regularly and kept separate from
personal clothing.

•

Where there is a risk of eye contact, eye
protection should be worn. For example;
chemical goggles or face shields. In addition, an
eye wash facility should be provided.

•

Obtain First Aid treatment immediately for open
cuts and wounds.

•

Wash regularly with soap and water to ensure all
oil is removed, especially before meals (skin
cleansers and nail brushes will help). After
cleaning, the application of preparations
containing lanolin to replace the natural skin oils
is advised.

•

Do not use gasoline, kerosene, diesel fuel, gas
oil, thinners or solvents for cleaning skin.

•

Use barrier creams, applying them before each
work period, to help the removal of oil from the
skin after work.

•

If skin disorders develop, obtain medical advice
immediately.
