CHEMICAL
STORAGE ROOMS LOCKED
I can't answer
your
OSHA-specific question, since our university isn't currently subject to
OSHA
regulations. I can tell you that all chemical storage areas are
supposed
to be kept locked on our campus when there are no authorized personnel
present. This prevents theft and unauthorized borrowing (which
messes up
inventories for folks) and keeps unauthorized people out of harm's way
by
keeping them out of places they shouldn't be. So far the system
seems to
be working very well for our departments.

Hi All,
Is there a specific OSHA regulation that says that chemical storage (stock) rooms must remain locked (inaccessible to students)?
Thanks in advance for your replies.
