Generic Chemical Hygiene Plan for the University of Cincinnati Date issued 11/01/10 Introduction - Lab-specific Chemical Hygiene Plan General Laboratory Information While this Generic Chemical Hygiene Plan contains University-wide information and procedures that may be sufficient for many activities it defines the minimum laboratory uses and procedures at the University of Cincinnati. Your specific Chemical Hygiene plan needs to describe, in writing, what actions need to be taken to protect people from the chemical hazards and unique operations in your laboratory, including: Standard operating procedures for chemical safety The criteria you use to implement exposure control measures Measures to ensure proper performance of fume hoods and other protective equipment Provision of chemical safety information and training to laboratory personnel Circumstances that require prior approval Provision for medical consultation and examination Designation of a Chemical Hygiene Officer Additional protection for work with particularly hazardous substances The following Standard Operation Procedure (SOP) form was developed as a guide at the departmental or laboratory level for the principal investigator, laboratory director/supervisor or individual researcher. The PIs are responsible for editing or augmenting as necessary the chemical hygiene plan to fit the procedures followed in the laboratories under their direction and sharing the document with all affected workers. If a particular procedure in the generic Chemical Hygiene Plan cannot be feasibly followed, then alternative techniques that offer equivalent protection should be documented herein. When complete add the supplemental requirements to the laboratory’s specific Chemical Hygiene Plan.
