Environmental Health and Safety

EHS Assistant

EHS Assistant is a new electronic information management system used to streamline the laboratory safety process and provide better service to researchers and laboratory personnel. Current features include lab personnel registration, lab inspections, and chemical inventory management. With EHS Assistant, Principal Investigators (PIs) can enter and track important safety information for their laboratory. Waste pick-up requests will be added in the near future.

  • Lab Registration — enter or remove lab personnel, see what lab rooms are registered, and review emergency contacts.
  • Training History — review safety training records for lab personnel.
  • Lab Inspections — review inspection history and respond to lab evaluations instead of submitting paper forms.
  • Chemical Inventory Management — enter and update chemical inventories.
  • Waste Pick-up Requests (coming soon) — request waste pickups and order waste supplies.
