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 2023 Update
The Chemical Hygiene Plan for the campus was reviewed and minor updates were made to the written plan. The CHP was uploaded to the EH&S web site and was available to the campus community in early CY 2023.
