It depends on the type of laboratory (incidentally the word "laboratory" literally means a place of work) Usually the word is taken to mean a place where highly reactive chemicals are used in experiments. In my school days we used neither safety goggles nor gloves but we knew where the water taps were and we also knew where the "buffer solution" was! Strong acids and alkalis were in regular use as was brucine sulphate (test for nitrates in semi-micro analysis) In the General Certificate of Education Chemistry exams one had to analyse and correctly identify four radicals in a sample. Nowadays eye protection in laboratories is mandatory as tyros are apt to have accidents. In electrical laboratories there are other hazards and it is not a good idea to wear metal jewellery or watch bands. In electronic laboratories static-free clothing and footwear is called for as some chips, especially CMOS, are extremely sensitive to "static zap". It used to be said that some particularly troublesome printed circuits would blow if you just looked at them the wrong way and whilst this might be an exaggeration it does bring home the point. Good luck!
