Many people who install or maintain fiber optic cables do not take proper safety precautions to avoid the many hazards that can be caused by fiber optics. They assume that because optical fiber doesn't carry electricity, it is not dangerous. Unfortunately, accidents occur because of this assumption. There are three categories involved in safety protection issues when working with fiber optics. These are eye protection, fiber fragment control, and safe use of chemicals. Hazards of Working with Fiber Optics When working with fiber optics, a person's eyes can be damaged by the transmitting of light. Anyone looking directly at the transmission of such frequencies can suffer loss of visual acuity or blind spots because the beam is focused on the retina. The fibers themselves are a very serious hazard since they are small pieces of glass. If possible, use a dark mat that is chemical resistant and as resilient as the work surface so when small fragments fall, they can be seen easily and picked up. Whena worker is trimming, stripping, or cutting fibers, tiny fragments can penetrate the skin and become embedded, causing a serious irritation. Ingested fibers can cause internal damage since they are light enough to float in air. Because of this, workers should not eat or drink in a fiber optic work area since a fiber scrap could fall onto their food or in their drink. There are also many chemicals and solvents used in cleaning and splicing fiber optics, which can be hazardous.
