I hope that it is acceptable for me to post my question here. I would like to know if there are any regulations related to the removal of general trash from chemistry laboratories in regard to frequency. We seem to be having challenges institutionally and
I would like to approach this issue from a safety standpoint. Also, does it matter whether we are speaking of a teaching lab or a chemical research lab.
Many thanks,
Pam
