Jenkins Academy of Applied Technology
LAB-001 — Employer workplace component
Laboratory Chemical Safety · v1.0.0 · October 22, 2026
Course developed by Todd Jerome Jenkins, MS, CSP.
Online knowledge component only. Actual Chemical Hygiene Plan instruction, chemical- and task-specific training, equipment checks and employer verification remain separate. This course does not designate a Chemical Hygiene Officer or provide blanket laboratory, biosafety, radiation, hazardous-waste, shipping or emergency-response qualification.
Complete this worksheet using the actual workplace and current plan. A blank form or course score is not evidence that the action occurred. Record actual dates and observations. Print or save a completed copy before closing; entries are not automatically stored. Keep private health details out of this worksheet.
| Component | Actual evidence |
|---|---|
| Lab scope and Chemical Hygiene Plan | Identify the actual work, applicable standard, current CHP, Chemical Hygiene Officer, procedures and approval requirements. |
| Chemical and task instruction | Provide instruction on the actual physical/health hazards, exposure limits, signs/symptoms, detection methods, controls, storage and waste arrangements. |
| Observed controls and understanding | Verify access to SDSs, proper hood checks, approved PPE and hygiene, safe task setup and teach-back; correct gaps before exposure. |
| Emergency and medical arrangements | Verify reporting, emergency equipment, safe exits, role limits, consultation/examination routes and confidential record access without collecting diagnoses in training forms. |
| Change, refresher and assignment decision | Record actual instruction date, trainer, observations, corrections, restrictions and employer decision; provide new-exposure instruction and employer-determined refreshers, separately from annual CHP evaluation. |
Use the actual work and plan. Arrange clear instruction, questions, teach-back and suitable safe practice. Correct a critical gap before relying on the arrangement. Academy support is asynchronous and is not an emergency contact route.
