The purpose of the Jefferson Lab Environment, Safety, & Health (ES&H) Manual is to provide clear and uniform ES&H policies and procedures to Jefferson Lab staff, users, and visitors, enabling them to effectively implement sound work practices in support of Jefferson Lab’s mission.

Scope
This manual
contains management policies and procedures
that define Jefferson Lab’s commitment to environmental protection, and worker
safety and health. It is consistent with
applicable Federal, State, and local laws and regulations and Jefferson Science
Associates, LLC’s (JSA’s) contractual obligations. It addresses identified hazards and issues
that have been deemed applicable to Jefferson Lab (See ES&H Manual 2410-T1 Hazard Issues List).
For clarity and consistency, ES&H Manual chapters shall outline relative laboratory policy and associated appendices shall define laboratory procedures. Drawing on diverse resources within and outside Jefferson Lab, this manual contains both a description of established ES&H policies and the appropriate job-related procedures commonly needed to implement work practices that are sound with respect to safety, and health protection of both workers and the environment of Jefferson Lab.

the primary policy
and procedure
document for all staff
to use in fulfilling their ES&H responsibilities. Jefferson Lab staff adheres
