In January, 1990, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) enacted the regulation entitled Occupational Exposure to Hazardous Chemicals in Laboratories (29CFR1910.1450 - commonly called "The Lab Standard"). This standard deals specifically with hazardous chemical recognition, safe use, storage, and disposal.
There are many hazards present in laboratories besides hazardous chemicals. Non-chemical lab hazards include compressed gases, cryogenic fluids, biohazards, electrical hazards, mechanical hazards, radiation, and radioisotopes. Non-chemical hazards are discussed in the latter part of this publication. This handbook provides basic information for many important topics concerning laboratory safety. It is neither a complete nor comprehensive presentation of lab safety. Additional information may be
obtained by calling the Department of Science Safety at 266-4933.
