A systems approach to an institutional laboratory ventilation management plan

Specifically, this LVMP applies the concept of continuous improvement of system performance described by American National Standard for Occupational Health and Safety Management Systems (ANSI Z10-2012) to the design and operational criteria for laboratory ventilation systems identified by the ANSI Laboratory Ventilation Standard (ANSI Z9.5-2012). Within this LVMP, we identify key stakeholders, their roles and responsibilities relative to the twin goals for the laboratory ventilation system of worker safety and environmental sustainability, and indicators of progress that track the success of the system in meeting these goals.
