This training is intended for non-laboratory personnel. PPE requirements for research labs, such as those where chemical, radioactive, biological, or reactive processes are conducted, are covered by the Laboratory and Research Safety Plan via the Unit Specific Plan.
Wood shops, metal shops, maintenance shops, machine shops, and similar areas are not considered research labs and thus fall under the PSU Personal Protective Equipment program.
