As well as we known each laboratory has some role and regulation conducted for occupational health and safety (OHS). OHS is a multidisciplinary concept that concentrates on the safety, health, and welfare of people engaged in work or employment and worker awareness of health and safety-related rights and responsibilities. The workers often forgot on their own security, firstly it was much found in a laboratory. Chemical engineering laboratory needs to apply occupational health and safety (OHS) to reduce some accidents like fire, toxicity and another factor it could be a hazard for the environment. Therefore, to improve about OHS, the employee will give knowledge and understanding how to applied OHS. This study seeks to examine the relationship and impact of occupational health and safety on employees’ chemical engineering laboratory in Politeknik Negeri Lhokseumawe.
