Cal. Civ. Code § 37.111.343
37.111.343 SAFETY
Operative Text
(1) Containers of poisonous or toxic materials must be prominently and distinctly labeled according to law for easy content identification and must be used according to manufacturer's directions. These materials must not be stored or used in any manner which may contaminate food or food contact surfaces. This provision does not prohibit the convenient availability of detergents or sanitizers for use at hand washing or dishwashing stations. (2) First aid materials must be available on the premises. (3) Guests must be provided with emergency exit information upon registration.
Mont. Admin. R. 37.111.343 establishes baseline safety requirements for lodging premises. Toxic or poisonous substances must carry proper labeling and be used per manufacturer's directions, and they may not be stored or used in ways that risk contaminating food or food-contact surfaces — though common cleaning agents kept near sinks are permitted. Additionally, first aid materials must be on-site, and guests must receive emergency exit information at the time they check in.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under Mont. Admin. R. 37.111.343, compliant lodging operators generally maintain clearly labeled containers for all toxic or poisonous materials, follow manufacturer's usage instructions, and keep such materials away from food and food-contact surfaces. Operators also stock first aid supplies on the premises and incorporate emergency exit information into the guest registration process, whether through printed materials, posted notices, or another reliable method. Routine staff training and periodic audits of chemical storage areas and first aid kits are practices commonly associated with ongoing compliance.

Mont. Admin. R. 37.111.343 gives guests the right to receive emergency exit information when they register at a lodging facility, and it requires that first aid materials be available on the premises. If a guest observes unlabeled toxic materials stored near food areas, missing first aid supplies, or a failure to provide exit information at check-in, these may constitute violations of this rule. Concerns can generally be reported to the Montana Department of Public Health and Human Services, and tenant-rights or consumer-protection organizations can help individuals understand what options may be available to them.
