The laboratory safety manual (commonly called the lab safety binder) is required to be kept in every research laboratory.  All personnel should be familiar with its contents and location in the lab space.

It should contain the following:

Chemical Hygiene Plan
*requires information to be completed and updated on at least an annual basis

• SOPs
• Lab Specific Training page
• Chemical inventory (once your lab is using the Chematix system - reference this link or print a chemical inventory report and place in binder)
• Online training class transcript(s)

Additional information

• If any lab uses chemicals from the Potential High Hazard Chemical list, add those documents to the lab safety binder.
