Sessions will include a review of Chemical Hygiene Plans (CHPs), responsibilities under CHPs, training requirements, proper chemical handling storage and disposal practices and laboratory safety equipment. Common lab safety violations and best practices will also be discussed.
Attendees will have the opportunity to tour through Menomonee Falls’ labs and chemical storage areas to see best practice solutions in action.
