Injury and Illness Prevention Plan

The Peralta Community College District, in accordance with the Cal/OSHA requirements under Title 8, California Code of Regulations (CCR), §5191, has developed a written Chemical Hygiene Plan (CHP). The plan establishes safe work practices, standard operating procedures (SOP), training requirements, engineering controls, and personal protective equipment (PPE) requirements. The District is committed to maintaining safe laboratory environments and protecting faculty, staff, and student employees who work with hazardous chemicals.

The CHP also addresses emergency response procedures, medical consultation following potential chemical exposures, and the safe handling of particularly hazardous substances. The plan is reviewed at least annually and updated as needed. It serves as an accessible resource for employees, supporting regulatory compliance, informed decision-making, and accountability in maintaining a safe and healthy laboratory environment.
