Training Requirements

All staff and researchers must attend a Local Fire Safety Induction and complete the Fire Safety & ¹û¶³Ó°Ôº Safety training courses on their first day of work.

Local inductions are normally carried out by line managers or area safety reps. Researchers will not be permitted to work in the lab until they have completed all their mandatory safety training.


The table below shows the essential training requirements for all staff, researchers, and masters students in the department.Ìý
