Safety Matters: Health & Safety & Biological Safety Carmel Nichols

Safe working protects: You Other lab workers Cleaners Visitors Your work Why does it matter?

What does the law say? Health Safety at Work etc Act 1974Health Safety at Work etc Act 1974 You must work safely You must not endanger others You must not misuse safety equipment Penalty – up to 2 year in prison &/or an unlimited fine

School Safety Committee oversees and implements H&S policies within the school on behalf of the School Management Committee (SMC). School Safety officer acts on behalf of the SMC in all H&S matters Floor leaders are responsible for the day to day H&S within the school. H&S within the Medical School

School H&S web pages contain information regarding H&S University & School H&S Policies Risk Assessments Control of Substances Hazardous to Health (COSHH) Fire procedures Display Screen Advice Waste disposal Policy ( info/h&s)

Training University Health & Safety Induction: University Waste Training: Display Screen Equipment Assessment Technical Staff will carry out a Laboratory Induction

Training You MUST attend Fire training annually You MUST have received training to work ‘out of hours’ (between 6pm and 7am).

General Lab Safety Always use the correct safety protection & Equipment provided: Lab coat Goggles Gloves Safety cabinets etc

Laboratory hygiene Never eat, drink or smoke in a laboratory Never apply cosmetics Never touch your face, mouth or eyes Never suck pens or chew pencils Always wash your hands before you leave and especially before eating

What are the general hazards in a laboratory? Fire Breakage of glassware Sharps Spillages Pressure equipment & gas cylinders Extremes of heat & cold Chemical hazards Biological hazards Radiation And many more!And many more!

Knowledge The person showing you a technique should inform you of all the Hazards & Risks associated with the procedure and YOU should obtain & READ copies of the relevant COSHH and Risk assessment forms before you carryout procedures on your own.

Do not carry out a new or unfamiliar procedure until you have been fully trained & understand the precautions necessary for safe working DO NOT GUESS!!!!DO NOT GUESS!!!! When in doubt – ASK!!!
