This training will focus on Biosafety principals and practices for Biosafety Level 1 and Biosafety Level 2 laboratories. In addition, details on the OSHA Bloodborne Pathogen Standard will be discussed. Topics include risk assessments, hazards of agents, exposure routes, PPE, engineering controls, decontamination, spill response, exposure response, training requirements, and lab responsibilities. This training is MANDATORY for anyone listed on an active IBC approved Biohazardous Material Registration. Employees not currently on an active registration are encouraged to attend as well.
Environmental Health and Safety will now offer this training on all campuses throughout the year as a service to our employees. We encourage you to identify any of your department staff that may need this training and see to it that they attend an upcoming session.
