Using leftover oils after changing employers

[musclemender101]

I recently made a switch to a new massage job and brought along some essential oils from my previous workplace. Back at my old job, we could use these oils even without being certified aromatherapists. But now that I'm at my new place, I haven't gotten clear guidelines yet, and I'm not sure if it's alright to keep using them. I've come across some mixed advice from the FHT and IFA—does anyone have insight on which approach is safer or more accepted? I'd really appreciate any help!

Talk to your employer and see what IFA and FHT have to say about the whole thing. You may get the green light to use them,but you may not. Untill you get a definitive answer, don't use the oils, just in case

Truth is, too many massage therapists treat essential oils like air fresheners. Without proper training, you're one bad reaction away from a lawsuit. If your new place's unclear, stop until they give the green light, period.

I agree with the @thepeacefulone and @Thromborn that the safest and most professional approach is to always check with your new employer before using any products you've brought in yourself.
They might have a specific policy, approved supplier list, or require certain documentation for anything used on clients.
This protects both you and the business!
