[Che-student-staff-list] Reminder: Self audit forms are due on Monday!

[Nagy, Gabriela]

Hello Everyone,

This is just a reminder that the Self-audit forms are due on Monday, June 2.

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; research laboratories and shops should address all sections. All self-audit checklists must be signed by PI/supervisor, not necessarily by the person completing the self-audit.

Please return completed self-audits to Gabriela Nagy in FRNY G051 by 5 pm on Monday, June 2.

In addition to the self-audit, please review your door posting, hazard assessment and prepare the new Chemical Hygiene Plan for your work area. They should be accurate and dated within the last six months. MSDS folders should also be updated, to have MSDSs no older than 5 years.

Thank you for your cooperation in this matter!
Gabriela
On behalf of the ChE Safety Committee

Subject: [Che-staff-list] Start of self-audits of ChE Labs and offices
Importance: High


Hello Everyone,



It is now time to complete the annual safety review of the ChE laboratories AND offices. These reviews are part of our Integrated Safety Plan (ISP) and are required to obtain our annual recertification with the University.



The timeline for 2014 is as follows:

- May - self-audits of laboratories and offices

- June - Safety Committee inspections of all ChE laboratories and offices

- May - July - address deficiencies identified in self-audits and inspections

- August - Recertification Review with REM



1. Self-Audits

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; research laboratories and shops should address all sections. All self-audit checklists must be signed by PI/superviseor, not necessarily by the person completing the self-audit.



Please return completed self-audits to Gabriela Nagy in FRNY G051 by 5 pm on Monday, June 2.



In addition to the self-audit, please review your door posting, hazard assessment and prepare the new Chemical Hygiene Plan for your work area. They should be accurate and dated within the last six months.



2. Inspections

The ChE Safety Committee will perform unannounced safety inspections of laboratories and offices. For your information, please find attached the inspection checklist that is used.



3. Deficiencies

Deficiencies identified in your audit and in the ChE Safety Committee inspections will need to be addressed. The ChE Safety Committee (list posted on https://engineering.purdue.edu/ChE/AboutUs/Safety.html) is available to help you.



4. Recertification Review

The review includes unscheduled visits to our laboratories and offices by REM. I will notify you of the review date, once this is agreed with REM.



Should you have any questions, please contact me.



Again, please return the completed self-audit forms to Gabriela Nagy in FRNY G051 by 5 pm on Monday, June 2.



Thank you,

Gabriela
