[Histonet] Xylene exposure

[Joe Nocito]

Jeannie,
we do not let any pregnant employee near xylene nor formalin. I had two 
pregnant employees due at the same time. I was able to set up to cutting 
stations in a different location. They cut surgicals, recuts, special, 
immunos and did the paper work. It was tough during maternity leave, but the 
pathologists were understanding.
