Medosa Environmental LLC is committed to ensuring laboratory safety through the development and implementation of comprehensive Chemical Hygiene Plans (CHP). Laboratories that handle hazardous chemicals must adhere to OSHA’s Occupational Exposure to Hazardous Chemicals in Laboratories standard (29 CFR 1910.1450), commonly referred to as the Laboratory Standard. This regulation mandates that every laboratory establishes a CHP to protect workers from the risks associated with hazardous chemical exposure.

Our Chemical Hygiene Officers (CHOs) are experienced professionals who work closely with laboratory personnel to draft and customize CHPs that meet the specific needs of each facility. By addressing the unique processes, equipment, and chemicals present in the laboratory, we ensure that all aspects of chemical safety are covered, promoting a culture of responsibility and vigilance.

Medosa’s CHP development process includes identifying potential hazards, establishing standard operating procedures, and implementing control measures such as engineering controls, administrative policies, and personal protective equipment (PPE). Our team provides in-depth training for laboratory staff, ensuring they understand and comply with safety protocols, from chemical procurement and storage to handling, use, and disposal.

Beyond plan development, we offer continuous support to keep your laboratory compliant with evolving regulations. This includes regular audits, chemical inventory management, and emergency response planning. Our goal is to create a safe and efficient laboratory environment that not only meets but exceeds OSHA standards, fostering innovation while protecting the health and safety of all personnel.
