Safety In the Laboratory
One-Day Lab Safety Seminar (1DLS) is a condensed version of the two-day course, intended to provide participants with an overview of laboratory hazards, regulatory requirements and preventive measures.Biosafety in the Laboratory
Biosafety in the Laboratory (BITL) This an introduction to the principles of biosafety, guidelines and regulations, decontamination and disinfection, disposal and shipment of biological materials/wastes, facility and equipment design, medical surveillance, practices and risk assessments. Participants will be introduced to key Biosafety reference materials and learn how to use them to perform basic biological risk assessments and establish appropriate levels of containment. We will review best practices to minimize the risk of laboratory acquired infections and standard precautions for proper handling of microorganisms. Discussions will be limited to Guidelines for safely handling microorganisms at both biosafety level 1 (BSL1) and biosafety level 2 (BSL2) with minimal introduction to biosafety level 3 (BSL3).How to Be a More Effective Chemical Hygiene Officer
How to Be a More Effective Chemical Hygiene Officer (CHO) A new CHO, or an "old" one, will find something to put to real use in this fast-paced presentation. This seminar was developed by Russ Phifer, George Wahl, and Jim Kaufman (RJG Associates) for the American Chemical Society Division of Chemical Health and Safety as the prep course for the NRCC CHO Certification Exam. Topics include: OSHA Lab Std., other lab regulations, role of the CHO, getting others involved, developing and implementing your CHP, lab hazards and resources. Bring your CHP so it can be reviewed. To learn more about the NRCC CHO certification exam, see www.nrcc6.orgLab Waste Management
Lab Waste Management (LWM) identifies the various regulatory requirements that apply to laboratories that generate hazardous waste and provides insight into the options for on-site waste management and off-site disposal. Topics include: environmental controls, regulatory requirements, liability, waste storage, working with vendors, manifests and required employee training. This course is based in part on a waste management course developed by Russ Phifer, W. C. Environmental.
Safety in Secondary School Science Labs
Safety in Secondary School Science Labs (SSSSL) is an intensive one-day seminar covering the fundamentals of lab safety and effective lab safety programs. Topics include: scope of the problem, accidents, legal aspects, emergency planning, chemical handling, chemical storage, biological and animal hazards, eye and face protection, hazardous waste management, electrical safety and safety program planning.
Science Safety in the Elementary Classroom
Science Safety in the Elementary Classroom (SIE) is a one-day seminar on the principles and concepts of science safety for elementary (K-6) science teachers.
