Biological COSHH and GM

  • Attend the departmental lab induction from Eileen.

  • Have a think about which biological experiments you will be carrying out.

  • Read the relevant risk assessments accessible on the Drive and hardcopies in the yellow folder.

  • Sign hardcopy sign-off sheet for each risk assessments you have read and understood.

  • Get a senior lab member to show you the equipment and train you in their safe use.

If there is not a COSHH form or risk assessment for the specific experiment you are doing you MUST complete one and get it approved BEFORE starting work.

This area is intended as a repository for digital copies of H&S risk assessments etc to aid typing when updating and amending only. The definitive version of each of these documents is the signed hard copy in the yellow lab folder.
