What Does CHP Stand For?
CHP stands for Chemical Hygiene Plan
A Chemical Hygiene Plan (CHP) is a written document that outlines the procedures, equipment, personal protective equipment (PPE), and training required to ensure safe handling and use of hazardous chemicals in a laboratory or workplace setting. It is designed to protect employees from health risks associated with chemical exposure and to comply with regulatory standards, such as those established by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). The CHP also includes emergency response measures, information on proper chemical storage, and guidelines for waste disposal, fostering a culture of safety and awareness in environments where chemicals are used.
