Bearcat Safety Tip of the Month Mercury Hazards: Broken Light
Bulbs
A fluorescent light bulb contains
mercury, which can cause health
issues. Open windows and doors to
provide air circulation if a bulb breaks.
Use disposable chemical resistant
gloves. Do not use a broom or
vacuum to clean up. Instead use a
mercury spill kit or cardboard pieces.
Pick up any remaining pieces with
sticky tape and then use a damp
paper towel.
