Developing a Chemical Hygiene Plan
T
his essential "how-to" book tells you what you need to know to comply with the federal regulation known as the "OSHA Laboratory Standard" which requires chemical hygiene plans. Developed by the ACS Committee on Chemical Safety, the guide pre sents hygiene plans that can be modified ac cording to the particulars of individual labora tories. Among the topics covered in this valuable book you'll find • • • • •
application of the OSHA Laboratory Standard history of the OSHA Laboratory Standard standard operating procedures control measures and equipment records and recordkeeping
In addition, several appendices are provided, including employee information and training techniques, exposure assessment procedures, the elements of an emergency procedure plan, the OSHA Laboratory Standard, a list of con tacts for states that have OSHA-approved state plans, and a list of acronyms. This reference is critical to all lab supervi sors who must have in place by January 31, 1991, a chemical hygiene plan that outlines specific work practices and procedures ensur ing employee protection from health hazards associated with hazardous chemicals. by Jay A. Young, Warren K. Kingsley, and George H. Wahl Developed by the Committee on Chemical Safety of the American Chemical Society
