Hi Melinda: Our Activities and Programs with Minor Participants<https://hr.osu.edu/public/documents/policy/policy150.pdf> policy does not address your question regarding hazardous materials/spaces. However, our Office of Environmental Health and Safety does publish governance documents that are not university policies, but do address - to varying extents - your question. You may be interested in the following:
Biosafety Manual http://ehs.osu.edu/FileStore/Biosafety%20Manual/Complete%20BSM.pdf States the following with respect to minors: "Be aware that while allowing unpaid volunteers (both minors and adults) to work in the laboratory is a department level policy, if allowed all volunteers must take all of the required safety training prior to beginning work in the laboratory." Radiation Safety Stanadards http://ehs.osu.edu//FileStore/Radiation%20Safety/Radiation%20Safety%20Standards.pdf<http://ehs.osu.edu/FileStore/Radiation%20Safety/Radiation%20Safety%20Standards.pdf> (pp 16 and 17) Section VII Personnel Monitoring Programs (pp 15 and 16 of 49) addresses badges for minors. Safety Management Guidebook (Attached) Has a section entitled "Minors in Hazardous University Environments" (pp 53 and 54).

Areas might include laboratories, greenhouses, animal facilities, animal procedure rooms, and animal housing areas for example. Thank you.
