Abstract
Key TakeawaysAn effective laboratory safety program focuses on preventing harm by reducing risks to staff and the laboratory itself.All laboratory safety programs should include documentation and training, safety data sheets, personal protective equipment, emergency shower/eyewash, fire safety, and first aid.Safety programs should address the specific analysis, such as microbiology or hazardous chemicals present.Operations laboratories should also have safety programs, even if they only perform process control testing.
