Best wishes ... Jim

Hello all,

I have been acting as chemical safety 'advisor' (like officer, but without responsibility to ensure compliance) at the school where I teach for the last several years. As we have dramatically increased in number of faculty, number of students taking more than one science class per year, and breadth of science courses offered (including organic chem and molecular genetics research), this job now needs to be expanded and made into a more traditional CSO position, and administration is open to discussing allocating more time from my teaching workload for this position. I created the description for what I am currently doing as 'advisor', but it would help to be able to point to other examples in remaking this into CSO. Could anyone recommend sources that could help me compose a proposed job description to share with my administration?

Thank you,
