How to handle Triethylene Glycol safety?

Is triethylene glycol harmful to humans?

Triethylene glycol (TEG) is a colorless, transparent, slightly sweet-tasting, stable, viscous liquid with oxygen atoms and hydroxyl groups attached to alkyl groups, thus possessing the properties of alcohols and ethers. 

Triethylene glycol has low to moderate toxicity and is generally considered safe for its intended industrial and commercial uses, but it is not harmless and requires proper handling.
