 I. Lab Safety Policies

1. General lab safety

• Never eat or drink while working in the lab.
• Read labels carefully.
• Do not use any equipment unless you are trained and approved as a user by your supervisor.

• Never do unauthorized experiments.

• Never work alone in laboratory.
• Keep your lab space clean and organized.
• Do not leave an on-going experiment unattended.
• Never use open flames in laboratory unless instructed by TA.

2. Clothing:
• Shorts and sandals should not be worn in the lab at any time. Shoes are required when
working in the machine shops.
• If you have long hair or loose clothes, make sure it is tied back or confined.
• Keep the work area clear of all materials except those needed for your work.

3. Equipment Failure
• If a piece of equipment fails while being used, report it immediately to Lab
Engineer/Assistant. Never try to fix the problem yourself because you could harm yourself
and others.
• If leaving a lab unattended, turn off all ignition sources and lock the doors.
• Clean up your work area before leaving.

4. Electrical safety
• Obtain permission by the safety coordinator before operating any high voltage equipment
• Maintain an unobstructed access to all electrical panels.
• Avoid using extension cords whenever possible.
• Never, ever modify or otherwise change any high voltage equipment.
 • Before attaching the power supply to your setup make sure there are no “live” wires which
can be touched.
• When attaching a high voltage power supply ALWAYS switch off the supply

5. Fire.
• If a person’s clothing catches on fire, he/she needs help.
• Prevent him/her from running.
• Make him/her lie down and smother the flames by rolling, wrapping with lab coats,
blankets, towels, etc.
• Never turn a carbon dioxide extinguisher on a person.
• If a fire breaks out, (if time allows) turn off all burners and remove solvents, place the
chemical and equipment safely to the nearest possible table/bench, exit the building
calmly.
• If you do not use the fire extinguisher, leave the room immediately to a safer place possibly
outside. There are carbon dioxide extinguishers in the building and the positions and
operation of these should be known.
• Point the extinguisher at the base of the flames.
• Very small fires can be put out with a damp towel by smothering.
• Only after the safety of all is assured should the matter of extinguishing the fire be
considered.
Because a few seconds delay can result in very serious injury, Laboratory staff will guide
you on what to do and how to exit during the case of such an emergency.

6. In Case of emergency
• Report the location of the emergency; give your name, telephone number, and building
and floor number.
• Report the nature of the emergency whether an explosion has occurred and whether there
has been a chemical or electrical fire.
