Chemical Hygiene/Exposure To Hazardous Chemicals In Laboratories

The Occupational Safety and Health Administration standard on occupational exposure to hazardous chemicals in laboratories (29CFR1910.1450) covers all laboratories engaged in the laboratory use of chemicals. The University's Chemical Hygiene Plan is a boiler plate document that will cover the major activities conducted at University laboratories. In some circumstances special procedures will need to be developed for a laboratory and attached in an appendix to the University's Chemical Hygiene program. For an evaluation of your laboratories compliance with this standard or for assistance in developing special procedures applicable to your laboratory, contact ESH(410-455-2918)
