Concern over research involving the creation of bird flu that spreads more easily is in the news again. An international group of scientists published an outline Aug. 6 in Science and Nature for similar experiments that could involve even stronger strains of the type of bird flu known as H7N9.

This presentation will cover regulations, hazard determination, generators, status, avoiding waste formation, purchasing, inventory, obeying the law, selecting a vendor, and household hazardous waste.

We’ve all done it. Either in a rush, under pressure, or trying to save money, we’ve gambled with our safety. Opting not to wear the bike helmet for a quick ride around town; skipping the sunscreen since it’s really not that sunny; not flossing, despite the dental hygienist’s threats and pleas. While these examples are fairly trivial and affect only oneself, other safety gambles have much more serious consequences.

What recent industrial disasters can teach lab managers about the cost/benefits of safety.

Results indicate significant backsliding in lab health and safety practices

This webinar will cover how to get ready for a lab safety inspection. The program will focus on the most important areas scrutinized by inspectors.
