Chemical substance management regulations and chemical substance handling requirements
Unlike industry, in universities a wide variety of chemicals are used in small quantities. Therefore, chemicals must be properly handled taking into consideration the possible hazards related to storage, usage, and disposal of such chemicals.
At Kumamoto University in March 2009, we established the Kumamoto University Chemical Substance Management Regulations and the Kumamoto University Chemical Substance Handling Requirements to promote proper management of chemical substances at our university.
Regulations
- Kumamoto University Chemical Management Regulations (in Japanese)
- Kumamoto University Chemical Substance Handling Requirements (in Japanese)
- Chemical SubstancesHandling Manual at the University (For guidance)
At Kumamoto University, chemical substance management briefing sessions are held for leaders in charge of chemical substance management at the beginning of the academic year.
