Chemical Inventory
Risk and Safety Solutions (RSS) is a new system for chemical inventory management – see Chemical Inventory. EH&S is initiating migration to the new system by conducting an initial chemical inventory of all labs at USC. Research groups will receive Welcome Kits that feature helpful information, tutorials, and links to acquaint them with RSS.
