ABSTRACT
This study outlays different individual’s conception of science. Closely rated to science is technology. Technology refers to practical solutions human have fashioned out in response to their needs or in attempts to solve problems requiring the modification of the environment.
This study covers the safety practices which must be carried out in laboratories. The primary aim of the study was to evaluate the extent to which the safety practice are being implemented in the secondary schools biology laboratories in Enugu South Local Government Area. To do this, question were based on how appropriate the types of design and fittings in the biology labs ensures safety, the extent to which the students/teachers comprehend the safety measures and practices.
The review of literature was organized under the following sub heading, viz: The concept of laboratory hazard, lab organization and management as a factor, safety stated, learning environment of Nigeria science laboratories, managing the biology laboratory, material resources for safety in science laboratory, material resources for safety in science laboratory and teachers role in maintaining safety in the laboratory.
The study remarkably revealed that the biology laboratories lack safety equipments, consequently leading to low implementation of safety measures and practices. The services of the laboratory attendants to ensure safety measures only to a small extent. Therefore experienced laboratory attendants are to be employed so that they will provide the basic safety information to every laboratory receives, particularly when there are enough windows and doors. This was confirmed by Ajayi (2004) when stated that where accidents occur there is a general observation for poor quality illumination.
The findings of the study indicate a major flaw in our educational system as it relates to the use of safety materials in the laboratories and implementation of safety practices in the lab. stated that the problem of education may be subsumed under teaching and learning, therefore I will conclude by saying that teachers who are viewed as catalysts that excite learning should play their roles in helping to ensure that their students have the knowledge of safety practices and also implement them.
