Inspect at the start of each semester and monthly during active research. Walk every bench, check every fume hood, and verify every emergency station. Address findings before students enter the lab.
A periodic safety inspection checklist for university laboratory managers, principal investigators, and EHS officers assessing safety conditions in teaching and research laboratories. Covers chemical storage and inventory, fume hood function, biological safety practices, radiation safety controls, waste disposal compliance, emergency equipment readiness, and the student-specific safety measures unique to academic laboratory environments.
University labs present a complex safety challenge — rotating populations of students with limited experience, a wide variety of hazardous materials, and research activities that push beyond standard operating procedures. Regular inspections catch the safety drift that occurs between semesters and ensure the lab is safe for the next cohort of students.
