Are laboratory personnel or visitors allowed to wear sandals and shorts in the laboratory?
Per the MIT Chemical Hygiene Plan, open-toed shoes or sandals must not be worn in laboratories if a chemical used in the laboratory poses a significant health risk to the individual through skin contact or absorption. The same criteria apply to visitors if they are in the immediate vicinity of work being performed in the laboratory.
