[Che-student-staff-list] Reminder: Safety self audit forms are due on Monday, June 3

[Gabriela Nagy]

Dear All,

This is a gentle reminder that the safety self-audit forms are due on Monday, June 3. The self-audit of work areas (labs, offices, storage rooms, etc) is part of our Integrated Safety Plan (ISP) and are required to obtain our annual recertification with the University.

The ISP Self-Audit checklist can be found on the ChE School's website, under the "Laboratory Safety Requirements" heading:

https://engineering.purdue.edu/ChE/AboutUs/Safety.html

or on the REM's website
http://www.purdue.edu/rem/home/forms/ispcheck.pdf

The first seven sections have universal questions that apply to every area. Sections 8 to 24 have questions related to specialized operations. 
If an area qualifies as an office, common area (e.g., conference room, kitchenette), or computer lab and does not involve the handling of, use of, or exposure to hazardous chemicals, machinery, equipment, animals, or biological agents, only the first seven sections of the self-audit need to completed. If in doubt about the type of area being audited, please address all sections. 
Research laboratories and shops should address all sections. 

In addition to the self-audit, please review your door posting and hazard assessment. They should be accurate and dated within the last six months.

Please return completed self audits to Gabriela Nagy in FRNY G051 by 5 pm on Monday, June 3.

Thank you,
Gabriela
on behalf of the ChE Safety Committee
