Minors in Labs Policy

Harvard is committed to fostering a safe environment for minors and preventing minors’ exposure to hazardous materials, laboratory pathogens, injurious incidents, and other inherent dangers that may be present in University laboratories.  This policy establishes University-wide requirements regarding the presence of minors in University laboratories. In addition to this policy, all laboratories are also expected to comply with Harvard’s Policy for the Safety and Protection of Minors.
