Section I-5111 - Laboratory Safety Program

A. While specific safety criteria are not an aspect of laboratory accreditation, laboratory personnel should apply general and customary safety practices as part of good laboratory procedures. Each laboratory is strongly encouraged to have a written safety plan as part of their standard operating procedures. However, when safety practices are included in any approved method, those procedures become mandatory and must be strictly followed.
