Helping to ensure that labs operate safely and providing workers with lab safety training courses and resources is an important part of our mandate. Depending on the type of research and lab you are working in your training requirements will vary. Your supervisor should be able to advise you on they type of training you require. Here are some health and safety resources for lab workers. Feel free to contact our office for more information.
