| Mon 18 |
Theory and practice session on safe manual handling within you work area. This session will relate directly to the manual handling tasks that you undertake daily. |
|
A short (10 minute) briefing covering the biological and other hazards to watch out for when walking through the PoM or carrying out independent non-experimental work, such as maintenance, cleaning, repairs to equipment, giving first aid, taking items through to Maxwell and vice versa, OR accompanying others who need authorised access (e.g. contractors). If you will be located at the PoM or doing experimental work, you should attend the full PoM Induction instead (see "Related Courses"). |
