Modern laboratory ventilation is a complex topic with many stakeholders and intersecting technologies that impact health, safety and sustainability concerns. This complexity can sometimes create confusion for both lab occupants and support staff in addressing ventilation concerns that arise.

To support effective discussion of this challenge between lab workers, facility staff and environmental health and safety professionals, the ACS Committee on Chemical Safety has partnered with CHAS to develop this video to help both lab occupants and support staff understand their roles and responsibilities in address lab ventilation concerns.

We will be providing further materials to support the use of this video over the next month.
