Registration is now open for the Fall 2020 ‰??Empowering Academic Researchers To Strengthen Safety Culture‰?? workshop at
http://dchas.org/2020/07/11/lst-workshop-registration-2020-3/
The American Chemical Society is sponsoring a workshop to help educate graduate students and other interested academic lab workers about lab safety culture and opportunities for promoting safety in their schools. Thanks to the overwhelming response from the academic community for the virtual version of this workshop, the August 16th workshop is full. Luckily, we will be holding this workshop again in virtual form on Thursday, November 12, 3 PM to 6 PM EDT. Participants will be awarded a certificate that can be noted on their resumes.
This 3-hour workshop is primarily directed at researchers in academic institutions that may include graduate students, postdoctoral scholars, and undergraduate students. Faculty and safety staff are also very much encouraged to participate.
Workshop goals are to:
‰?¢ Educate participants about key technical resources to expand their ability to think systematically about safety.
‰?¢ Guide participants to identify everyone‰??s responsibility for laboratory safety in the hierarchy at their institutions.
‰?¢ Empower participants to strengthen the safety culture at their institutions through expanding their safety networks and developing laboratory safety teams.
