Safety


Our goal is to eliminate all injuries, prevent adverse environmental and health impacts, reduce wastes and promote resource conservation. All researchers and visitors are expected to exhibit appropriate and responsible behavior at all times within the facilities.

We work closely with our Environmental Health & Safety department (EH&S) on campus to promote safe practices and ensure regulatory compliance. Their website is a valuable resource for all researchers. Please visit often!

Pertinent topics to be found on the EH&S site include:
  • Laboratory Safety Fact Sheets (one page summaries of key lab issues)
  • Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)
  • Materials Safety Data Sheets (MSDS)
  • Chemical Spill Cleanup Procedures
  • Radiation & Laser Safety

Safety information at the departmental level can be found here.

Safety information specific to the MPL can be found in our Resources section.
