[DCHAS-L] 5 Re: [DCHAS-L] FW: Ear Bud Radio Use in labs
Good Morning,
I have
long taken issue with the use of any media device (ipod, cell phone,
dare I even say the radio?) in the laboratory, and not only for all of
the good Health and Safety reasons mentioned thus far.
While
Health and Safety is a major concern of mine, I work in an analytical
service laboratory and I get very concerned about how the quality of
work may suffer if there is something to take away the focus from where
it should be. I am in
the process of establishing some policies as we are a fairly new
laboratory and this is one that will be implemented. Beyond that, we are sure
to acknowledge the personal needs of the employees and the need to take
care of some personal business on company time. While I realize some of it
is a bit strict, I have gotten no complaints, and I=92ve not found
anyone taking advantage.
Just my 2
cents.
