Labortory Safety Program


Respirators

Modern laboratories incorporate engineering controls (e.g., fume hoods) that mitigate respiratory hazards. If, however, engineering or administrative controls are not possible or practical, then potentially exposed persons shall be enrolled in the EH&S Respiratory Protection Program. This program is designed to meet regulatory requirements and ensure the health and safety of those persons falling within the program. Legally, you can not simply purchase a respirator and use it without contacting EH&S.
