Generate a risk assessment for chemical laboratory PDF with source-backed hazards, controls, risk ratings and review actions.
How to generate your draft PDF
Edit or add hazards
Choose a preloaded hazard, add your own, and adjust the initial risk details.
Fill the assessment
Add controls, optional action details, and residual risk ratings.
Review and export
Review all hazards, then generate the draft PDF for internal review.
Interactive Assessment
What should be included in scope?
Include the assets, systems, and data that matter most to your organization for a complete and meaningful risk assessment.
5
key scope areas
Focus on the areas that have the greatest impact on your risk posture.
- Chemicals, concentrations, quantities, physical states, hazards, and credible exposure routes
- Laboratory procedures, reactions, heating, transfers, mixing, and equipment used for chemical work
- Fume hoods, ventilation, containment, PPE, eyewash, showers, and emergency equipment
- Chemical storage, incompatibilities, compressed gases, labeling, controlled decanting, and access
- Spills, waste segregation, disposal, emergency response, and incident history
- 1
Chemical inventory and current SDS records
Shows which substances are present and provides hazard, compatibility, exposure, storage, and emergency information.
- 2
Fume hood and ventilation inspection or performance records
Helps confirm that engineering controls relied upon for vapor, gas, aerosol, or dust exposure are functioning.
- 3
Chemical storage and compatibility inspection
Helps identify incompatible storage, damaged containers, excess quantities, and labeling problems.
- 4
Emergency equipment inspection records
Confirms eyewash, safety shower, spill equipment, alarms, and other emergency provisions are available and maintained.
- 5
Hazardous-waste, spill, and incident records
Shows recurring handling, segregation, disposal, spill, or exposure problems requiring additional controls.

Chemical Laboratory Risk Assessment FAQs
A chemical laboratory risk assessment evaluates how chemicals are received, stored, prepared, transferred, reacted, heated, analyzed, cleaned up, and disposed of. It considers exposure, incompatibilities, ventilation, fire or explosion, spills, compressed gases, waste, and emergency response so teams can document laboratory-specific controls and review actions before work proceeds.
