The Chemical Safety Assistant allows the user to track and evaluate the risk(s) of chemicals in use and their procedures to ensure that they are used in a safe and healthful manner, and supporting compliance with all applicable, federal, state, and local regulations.
Inventory Verification
In addition to the reporting, there are inventory verification applications that will allow for the scanning of inventories. This verification process will highlight inventory stored in an incorrect storage location within a lab and chemicals stored in a location that is different from those specified in the database. The inventory verification will also point out chemicals stored in a lab that do not belong in the lab. This typically means that someone lent a chemical to another individual but did not record the exchange. The scanning process will indicate those compliance issues.
P.I./Lab Manager Connectivity
From a P.I.s perspective, the program is extremely powerful because it allows the P.I. the ability to register new workers, remove workers, add space and remove space, An example of a request to update an existing permit is shown under the Web Builder application.
Worker Registration
Options to request to register new workers or remove workers from a specific permit are also available. Once the registration or removal is complete, EHS will receive an email indicating that a worker has been removed or registered. It's the responsibility of EHS to review and approve but EHS is not required to re-enter the registration information. This worker registration is in lieu of using the Web Compliance Builder registration. Worker registration by that method requires an amendment added.
