EHSO Laboratory Safety Templates and Documents!

Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) Hazard Assessment Template

Are you wearing the correct PPE while performing experiments? Do you know when to wear safety glasses or safety goggles? Do you know when a face shield is necessary? EHSO created the PPE Hazard Assessment Template to help researchers identify the proper PPE to wear. PPE selection should be based on the type of exposure or research activity. Labs can use the PPE Hazard Assessment Template as a training tool when assessing laboratory hazards. Labs can also use the template to determine the specific PPE necessary to protect personnel. You can obtain the template here:  PPE Hazard Assessment template

Laboratory Self-Inspection Form Cheat Sheet

The Laboratory Self-Inspection (LSI) Form Cheat Sheet was created to supplement the Laboratory Self-Inspection Form. The Cheat Sheet includes the safety reason for each line item on the Laboratory Self-Inspection Form, tips for how to comply and the regulatory standard that corresponds to each line item on the inspection form. Labs can obtain the LSI Cheat Sheet by visiting the following link on the EHSO website.

Written Lab Procedures for Chemicals with Special Hazards

Most labs on campus provide researchers with written protocols or procedures. These procedures provide step-by-step technical instructions. Often, the protocol or procedure does not inform personnel of the hazards they may encounter when performing the experiment. Labs can use this template to help increase awareness of best practice when working with chemicals that possess special hazards. Chemicals with special hazards include carcinogens, reproductive toxins, pyrophoric compounds, peroxide forming compounds, etc. Labs can obtain the Written Lab Procedures for Chemicals with Special Hazards from the EHSO website by clicking here.
