It's in our Chemical Hygiene Plan, but I've had no luck in getting
compliance with it. Our parent company has had tremendous success in
promoting the removal of PPE, and has said that it is just a matter of
changing the culture. I wish it were that easy. I've tried almost
everything (even reporting people), but it truly needs management
support...at all levels. VP's will "yes" you to death, but not stress
the importance among middle managers. I'm currently working with our
new executive VP to get this total buy-in, because we have employees
who complain to me, and I tell them that I don't know what so-and-so
was working with and if it's safe to touch the elevator button. I keep
trying though. I'd appreciate any good responses on this as well.
Thanks in advance.

>We require that lab coats and gloves be removed before leaving the
lab. This is in place for all our labs and written in our CHP.

All our policies explicitly state that PPE are only to be worn in the
lab. They are not to be stored in the office areas or worn to the
bathroom or break room. The challenge is enforcing the rule.

We hav an airlock where they remove there labcoats (disposable tyvek)
and gloves in an autoclavable box with a bag before they leave the
lab. The contents of the box is autoclaved when full.
