Lab Self-Assessment Checklist

Environmental Health and Safety encourages laboratories to conduct safety surveys of their areas on a regular basis. In order to guide you in this self-assessment, we have created a checklist of general laboratory safety items that are relevant to most research laboratories at Portland State University. We encourage you to do this safety survey at least twice a year and discuss the results with others in your laboratory.

This survey does not include biological safety or radiation safety issues. Please contact EHS if you have any questions or need assistance with these self-assessments. This self-assessment does not replace the laboratory safety assessments that are conducted by the Chemical Hygiene Committee.
