Over the coming months, our office will be contacting you to schedule a brief review of your laser usage. As in the past, EHS will be looking primarily at the following laser-safety related items:
- laser inventory
- laser use areas
- laser set-up and specific applications
- equipment labels
- signage
- protective equipment
- use and safety procedures
- staff and staff training
It would be helpful to have a list of staff currently working with lasers and any operation/safety procedures you have available at the time of the audit. For most labs, the audit will take approximately 30 minutes. Please contact Gordon Axt at 319-335-8503 if you have any questions.
