[Histonet] RE: No food or drink in the lab

[Osborne, Dale]

Hello,
   I've attached the policy that Washington University has regarding food and drink in the lab.  If found upon lab inspection, the university and/or department may be fined.

Pretty sure that is an OSHA regulation.

Does anyone know of a specific site and quote that states "No food or drink in the lab" and what the consequences would be?  That covers drinks/snacks in the cabinets above their workstations too, right? I have a sign up on the door entering the lab that states no food or drink, but the staff continue to keep stuff around their desk, so I need something to back me up from CLIA, OSHA, CAP, etc...

Thanks!
