Lab Safety & Chemical Hygiene
Course Description
In this course, you will learn about the requirements employers must meet to ensure a safe laboratory environment for their employees. It also walks you through creating an effective and comprehensive Chemical Hygiene Plan including basic components, general laboratory safety practices, facility and operation safety rules, chemical hazard identification, and other general safety topics that relate to laboratories. OSHA has tailored a standard for occupational exposure to hazardous chemicals in laboratories referred to as the Laboratory Standard which is found in Title 29 of the Code of Federal Regulations Part 1910). Under this standard all operations that meet the OSHA definition of a laboratory are subject to the Laboratory Standard.
The Training Course Will Highlight ?

The course will cover the basic principles of biological, chemical, radiological, and physical safety practices within a laboratory environment. Although such training is required under the OSHA Laboratory Standard (29CFR 1920.1450) for all individuals who work in the laboratory, this course is primarily directed toward those individuals who have been entrusted with laboratory safety duties, e.g. chemical hygiene officers. In this course, you will learn about the requirements employers must meet to ensure a safe laboratory environment for their employees. It also walks you through creating an effective and comprehensive Chemical Hygiene Plan including basic components, general laboratory safety practices, facility and operation safety rules, chemical hazard identification, and other general safety topics that relate to laboratories.
