The Chemical Hygiene Plan (CHP) for the Nason Research Group is embodied in the general OSU CHP combined with the following standard operating procedures and safety instructions found on SafetyWeb  and OSU's EH&S website. All members of the Nason Research Group must be familiar with these materials and will receive hands-on training in any relevant procedures.

Coworkers are expected to adhere to the laboratory attire policy of the Department of Chemistry (clothing covers from shoulders to ankles, closed toed shoes, long pants) and must wear required personal protective equipment (PPE) at all times in the laboratory. At a minimum, required PPE comprises a laboratory coat and approved safety glasses or safety goggles.

All lab users must review the safety information below and the relevant safety data sheets (SDS) and standard operating procedures (SOP) before beginning work, and have signed an Acknowledgement of Safety Training form within the past 12 months.
