OSHA Laboratory Standard Compliance Checklist

30+

Use this OSHA Laboratory Standard chemical hygiene checklist to guide safe handling of hazardous chemicals in laboratories. It covers identifying staff who require training, performance-based training requirements, hazard recognition and control, and proper PPE selection and use. Verify engineering controls such as fume hoods, annual hood flow checks, and sash height limits. Ensure correct chemical labeling, posting of hazard areas, and carcinogen warnings. Manage inventories with barcoding, compatibility storage, secondary containment, and flammable cabinets. Reinforce rules for unattended operations, lone work notifications, and prohibitions on food and drink. Maintain MSDS access, include MSDS with shipped chemicals, and create MSDS for synthesized substances. Confirm compliant waste disposal and complete sign-off.

MUSC Laboratory Safety Assessment
This MUSC Laboratory Safety Assessment helps laboratories evaluate critical safety controls and compliance. Use it to check door signage and emergency contacts, PPE use and training, chemical inventory and segregation, flammable storage limits, and labeling of secondary containers. Verify spill kits, eyewash and emergency showers with up to date logs, and proper handling of infectious and hazardous waste. Inspect fume hoods and biological safety cabinets for certification and performance, and ensure compressed gas cylinders are secured. Confirm staff awareness of the emergency action plan and fire extinguisher training, and document issues for corrective action.
