While wishing you a joyful holiday, the Health & Safety Office would like to remind all laboratory personnel of the following:

  1. Ensure the emergency contact displayed on your laboratory door is up-to-date.
  2. Before leaving the laboratory, please check the area and ensure that:
  • All gas cylinders and gas lines have been shut off and secured;
  • No unattended experiments;
  • Sashes of fume cupboards have been closed completely;
  • There is an adequate supply of back-up power, gas(es) and water to critical equipment to avoid interruption;
  • Non-essential equipment has been switched off and unplugged, if possible, and
  • Doors are locked to prevent unauthorized entry to laboratory areas.
