为了在学生中建立普遍意识并评估他们的化学品安全知识和态度水平，Jai Hind Educational Trust (JET)、印度 Dhule 的 ZB Patil 学院和雅典协和大学的化学专业学生完成了一项在线化学品安全调查， 2020-2021 学年美国西弗吉尼亚州。共有 221 名学生参与了调查，调查包括 20 个问题，涵盖三个标准：化学实验室安全实践、安全知识和态度以及基本危险警告符号的识别。调查结果表明，几乎所有学生（总计 97%）都了解并在各自机构接受过安全程序方面的培训。然而，有相当多的学生报告说他们没有穿不露趾的鞋子、实验室外套、或护目镜，无法正确识别基本的 GHS 符号，需要接受有关处理一般化学废物的额外培训。通过比较分析，确定机构与一些调查问题之间存在统计上显着的关系。对这些结果的仔细分析表明，机构政策和教育工作者在塑造学生对化学品安全和实践的态度方面发挥着关键作用。根据从研究中获得的见解，提出了可能的策略来帮助解决这些缺陷。这些发现增加了关于化学品安全的全球讨论，同时帮助国内和国际化学品安全决策者做出改变以提高化学品安全意识。

Evaluating and Promoting Chemical Safety Awareness in the Chemical Sciences

To create general awareness among students and assess their level of chemical safety knowledge and attitudes, an online chemical safety survey was completed by chemistry students at Jai Hind Educational Trust’s (JET’s), Z. B. Patil College in Dhule, India, and Concord University in Athens, West Virginia, USA during the 2020–2021 academic year. A total of 221 students participated in the survey that comprised of 20 questions covering three criteria: chemical laboratory safety practices, safety knowledge and attitudes, and identification of basic hazard warning symbols. The results of the survey indicated that almost all students (97% total) were aware and have received training on safety procedures at their respective institutions. However, a significant number of students reported not wearing closed-toe shoes, a laboratory coat, or safety goggles and were unable to correctly identify basic GHS symbols and require additional training on handling general chemical waste. Through comparative analysis it was determined that a statistically significant relationship exists between the institutions and some of the survey questions. Careful analysis of these results revealed that institutional policies and educators play a key role in shaping student attitudes toward chemical safety and practices. Inferring from the insights gained from the study, possible strategies to help address these deficiencies are proposed. These findings add to the global discussion regarding chemical safety, while helping both domestic and international chemical safety policymakers to make changes to promote chemical safety awareness.
