EHS Procedures for Lab and Workshop Facilities
In university colleges, students are expected to manipulate instruments, equipment, and materials that are potentially hazardous. For this reason, students are required to attend the EHS inductions and orientations, and to read the EHS manuals associated with all lab and workshop activities. Students will not be allowed to participate in the lab or workshop activities unless they have demonstrated a clear understanding of the safety procedures involved.
Students shall get the lab instructor’s approval before starting the experiments in labs /workshops. Students may not work alone in a lab or workshop in case of a due to chances of an accident or medical emergency. Inattention or disruptive behavior will not be tolerated in any lab or workshop activity. Repeated cases will be referred for disciplinary action. Equipment, tools, and materials must be handled in a manner that is safe for the student as well as for other students and the instructor and only if authorized to do so. Students have a responsibility to report any infringements which they witness. Further information is available in the EHS manuals.
