A risk assessment is a process utilized to identify and evaluate the characteristics of a known infectious or potentially infectious agent or material, the activities that may result in exposure, the probability of contracting a laboratory-acquired infection, and the potential consequences of such an infection. The information obtained from the risk assessment serves as a guide for selecting appropriate practices and facility requirements to minimize or eliminate the risk to the lab worker, the community, and the environment.
It is truly an exciting experience. We have accomplished our mission in implementing the laboratory safety program in our laboratories and we have achieved the following:
Laboratory Policies, Manual Handbook, SOPs, Risk Assessments, MSDS, PSDS, Laboratory Biosafety Program, Biosecurity Plan, Emergency Plan, Emergency Codes, Fire Code and Drills, Emergency Plan, Chemical Inventory, Occurrence Variance Report (OVR), Training Logbook, Rejected Criteria, Critical Value, TAT, STAT, Spill Kit, First Aid Kit, Competency Test, New Employees Orientation.
