Risk Perception in Academic Labs

Due to potential liability and negative impact on an institution's reputation, details about injury numbers and types are most often not released by universities and colleges. Our study demonstrates that researchers in academia underestimate their risk and their safety behavior strongly correlates with how they view their risk. Facts influencing risk perception as they pertain to the research environment and the impact of safety culture on how researchers view their risk will be discussed.

Laboratory Considerations for Analysis of Radiologically Contaminated IH Samples

This session will discuss the following requirements: hiring a radiation safety officer, obtaining a radioactive materials license, qualifying and training personnel, finding a waste broker, lining up bonding and insurance, a decommissioning plan, designated and secured receiving areas, monitoring of packages, designated handling areas, identified instruments for analysis of samples, and environmental controls.

The International Standard for Calibration and Testing Laboratories – ISO/IEC 17025 was revised in 2017. Over the past 20 years the industrial hygiene profession has relied on the ISO/IEC 17025 standard to provide confidence in analytical data from testing laboratories to support health and safety decisions. The revisions adopted in 2017 create a different mindset, going from prescriptive to more performance based criteria.
