Abstract This research on Green Science in the Lab: An Assessment-Based Proposal for Practice Refinement has objectives to reduce risks from toxic chemicals and complicated laboratory procedures, increase profits by reducing operating costs, and enhance learning and practices regarding environmental protection. Different colleges at Centro Escolar University Makati Campus—comprising Psychology, Medical Technology, Dentistry, Nursing, and Pharmacy—assessed science laboratory practices in terms of health hazards and challenges associated with waste management; the potential benefits of integrating greener materials and safer experimental procedures into laboratory instruction in terms of environmental sustainability, enhanced learning outcomes, improved waste management, and regulatory compliance; and the extent to which sustainable laboratory practices, if incorporated into the revised manual, can reduce operational costs, minimize environmental impact, and improve student safety.

There is a significant and strong relationship between the respondents’ assessments regarding science laboratory practices and the potential benefits of integrating greener materials and safer experimental procedures into laboratory instruction, as shown by the Pearson R test. The test also indicates a significant relationship between respondents’ assessments of the potential benefits of integrating greener materials and safer experimental procedures and the extent to which sustainable laboratory practices, if incorporated into the revised manual, can be applied. This result emphasizes the important role of sustainable laboratory practices in fostering safer, more efficient, and environmentally responsible science education.
