What do you believe are the most important lab safety rules? The ones that you feel are so important that if you had a colleague who didn’t want to follow those rules, you
don’t want that colleague in the same room with you.
When they violate these rules, they are putting themselves at risk. They are putting you at risk. And, they are putting the reputation and perhaps the future of your organization
at risk.
Please send me your “Top 10” directly to
jim**At_Symbol_Here**labsafety.org. I will compile the results and share them with the listserv.
Thanks … Jim
