Program Description
Cal/OSHA’s Occupational Exposure to Hazardous Chemicals in Laboratories standard requires employers to develop and implement a Chemical Hygiene Plan (CHP).
A CHP is a written program which sets forth procedures, equipment, PPE, and work practices that are capable of protecting employees from the health hazards presented by hazardous chemicals used in that particular workplace.
CY 2024 Update
In 2023, the Chemical Hygiene Program for the campus was reviewed and minor updates were made to the written plan, available on the EH&S website.
No updates to the CHP were made in CY 2024.
