Personnel Clothing and Dress Codes (Other Considerations)

Based on a risk assessment, laboratories will have their dress codes, policies, and recommendations that will typically include items such as:
  • Long hair being tied back and out of the way.
  • Wearing long pants that cover the ankle and pants that are not frayed or torn.
  • Wearing clothing made of natural fibers since they are fire resistant.
  • Wearing clothing to cover skin as best possible.
