In order for an inspector to properly do his job of detecting dangerous situations or practices, it is necessary for the inspector to perform his "work" of inspection in a potentially dangerous environment. This naturally leads to the question of what exotic training was given to the inspector to allow him to perform in that environment. Once the inspector can define and document HIS training, you can provide that to your workers.

Or they have to wait until the lab is made safe for them.
