A resource for laboratory safety
DOI: 10.1063/PT.3.1381
Two letters regarding laboratory safety, especially in academic environments, have caught my eye (PHYSICS TODAY, August 2011, page 9 ; October 2011, page 11 ). When I was a postdoctoral researcher, I learned a great deal about safety and safety management in a laboratory environment at the Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory. I find myself introducing ideas about safety management and referring to PPPL’s safety manual frequently in my current university environment. The manual, online at http://www.pppl.gov/eshis/ESHD_MANUAL/sm.html , is a wonderful resource for those concerned about laboratory safety.
