Control the environment. Protect the mission.
Pharmaceutical plants, chemical manufacturers, research labs, and production suites where chemicals, controlled spaces, and documentation all matter.
Three situations that start the call.
Chemical exposures that need data
Solvents, active ingredients, and process chemicals create exposures that have to be measured, not assumed.
High-risk work inside a live plant
Vessels, reactors, and energized equipment mean confined space entry, lockout, and hot work under permit, often with contractors on site.
Chemicals on a calendar
New Jersey Right to Know surveys, Tier II reports, waste manifests, and safety data sheets all come due. A missed one becomes a finding.
Identify. Correct. Educate.
Identify
- Gap analysis
- Air and exposure monitoring
- Respirator fit testing
- Noise surveys
- Site audits and mock inspections
- Fire and life safety assessments
Correct
- Chemical safety and hazard communication programs
- Contractor safety and high-risk work permits
- Laboratory safety and chemical hygiene plans
- Respiratory protection programs
- Emergency planning and Treo‑EX exercises
- Hazardous waste management programs
- ISO 45001, 14001, and 9001 management systems
Educate
- DOT hazardous materials training
- Hazard communication
- Electrical safety and lockout/tagout
- CPR, AED, and First Aid
- Bloodborne pathogens and OPIM
- Medical emergency response teams
- Confined space entry and rescue
We work alongside your process safety team on the parts that touch the floor. Permits, contractor safety, emergency response, and training.
Exercise scenarios we build for this site.
Scenario 1
A chemical release in a production area
Scenario 2
Utility loss that affects controlled environments
Scenario 3
Evacuating gowned staff from a cleanroom
The requirements behind the work.
- NJ Worker and Community Right to Know Act
- An annual chemical inventory survey and employee training for covered New Jersey employers.
- 40 CFR 370, Tier II
- An annual hazardous chemical inventory report to state and local emergency planners.
- 40 CFR 112, SPCC
- Sites with more than 1,320 gallons of aboveground oil storage need a spill prevention plan. Smaller qualified facilities can self-certify. Larger sites need a Professional Engineer's certification.
- 29 CFR 1910.1450
- Occupational exposure to hazardous chemicals in laboratories, including a chemical hygiene plan.
- 29 CFR 1910.28 / 1926.501
- Fall protection starts at 4 feet in general industry and 6 feet in construction. Many owners of live sites set one 4-foot rule for everyone, because operations and construction crews work side by side.
- 29 CFR 1910.134
- Respiratory protection, including fit testing for tight-fitting respirators.
- 29 CFR 1910.1200
- Hazard communication, with a written program, labels, safety data sheets, and training.
- 49 CFR 172.704
- DOT hazmat employee training, with recurrent training at least every three years.
- 29 CFR 1910.120(q)
- Emergency response to hazardous substance releases.
- Exposure limits
- OSHA limits, with the NIOSH recommendation reported where it's stricter. Common exposures here include solvents and process chemicals, and active ingredients with no OSHA limit, benchmarked to the manufacturer's exposure limit or NIOSH occupational exposure banding.
- 29 CFR 1910.146
- Vessels, reactors, tanks, and pits are often permit-required confined spaces under 29 CFR 1910.146, with isolation, atmospheric testing, and a rescue plan before entry.
- ISO 45001, 14001, and 9001
- Not law, but often a contract requirement. Owners ask contractors and suppliers to show a certified or aligned management system.
Tenet recommends a consistent four-foot fall-protection threshold across mixed operations and construction sites, while addressing task-specific requirements and hazards.
What you walk away with.
- Exposure monitoring results
- Fit test records by worker, respirator, size, and date
- Written programs that match your rooms and processes
- DOT and hazard communication training records
- Audit findings with owners and dates
- Exercises come with the exercise plan, an after-action report, and an improvement plan with owners and dates
