EHS Policy & Program Creation

Tailored, industry-specific safety policies and programs that meet regulatory and organizational requirements.

Every life science site needs written EHS programs — but most template programs don't survive first contact with a regulator. We build your policies around the actual hazards, chemicals, workflows, and people on your floor, so your program matches what a CUPA or OSHA inspector finds when they walk in.

What you get

Custom policy development

Policies designed for your specific industry, risks, and regulations — CHP, BBP, HazCom, LOTO, RCP, and more.

Comprehensive safety programs

Structured EHS programs covering training, emergency procedures, and compliance requirements across your organization.

Regulatory alignment

All programs aligned to OSHA, EPA, DOT, and applicable state and local regulations.

When you need this

Common triggers

If any of these sound familiar, this is the service to talk to us about.

  • You're moving into a new lab and the landlord (or investors) is asking for proof of EHS programs.
  • You have inherited a binder of outdated policies that don't reflect current operations.
  • Your safety lead just left and you need to rebuild institutional knowledge.
  • A recent audit or inspection flagged missing written programs.

Scope

What's included

Written Chemical Hygiene Plan (CHP) tailored to your chemical inventory and lab SOPs.
Bloodborne Pathogens (BBP) program, exposure control plan, and post-exposure protocols.
Hazard Communication (HazCom) program with GHS-aligned SDS management.

Series A, first dedicated lab spaceSouth San Francisco, CA

Stand-up of a full EHS program for a 45-person preclinical biotech

The company had signed a lease on a 12,000 sq ft shared lab facility and had 60 days before move-in. No existing EHS programs, no HMBP, no EPA ID, no chemical hygiene plan — and a landlord requiring proof of compliance before key turnover.
