This course presents a framework for managing process safety in the laboratory, building upon the concepts in ELA954 - Laboratory Safety. ELA986 is the second course in a two-course series (ELA982 and ELA986) that describe how to manage process safety in the lab. The CCPS Risk Based Process Safety (RBPS) model serves as the foundation for managing lab process safety.
