Safety

The CGM strives to promote a culture of safety and risk awareness through proactive risk management, comprehensive training, and a commitment to continuous improvement meeting or exceeding all campus requirements for safe work environments and meeting or exceeding campus requirements for cyber-security.

All researchers and staff at the CGM must go through safety training and orientation prior to being authorized to perform any work at the facility. This includes completing training modules in our Learning Management System, becoming familiar with all applicable policies referenced therein, and reading and signing a laboratory use agreement prior to commencing any work at our site.

All visitors must be accompanied by authorized personnel and only enter authorized areas. The CGM welcomes tours and group visits but requires sufficient advance notice and coordination with staff so that the potential visitation areas can be prepped for visitors.

All researchers and visitors are asked to immediately report any potential health and safety hazards to any CGM staff member.
