Safety Contracts - First of all - you probably would be better off calling 
it "safety acknowledgement form" in lieu of "safety contract!"=A0 The idea 
is that you are informing the students or having them acknowledge the fact 
that the lab is a dangerous place to work and in order to make it safer - (
not "safe!"), they must follow the legal and best professional practices yo
u are providing.
=A0
Relative to the time for holding the items -=A0The statute of limitations f
or negligence in most states is 3 years for the date of the harm.=A0 Hope t
his helps -
