Good morning!

 

This is a reminder that everyone in our School (faculty, grad students, post-docs, staff –including clerical and business office staff) needs to complete the online safety refresher training by the end of next week, Sunday, May 17, 2015.

 

If you already completed it, please disregard this email.

If you didn’t complete the  refresher training yet, please follow this link: https://engineering.purdue.edu/Intranet/Groups/Schools/ChE/SafetyTraining.html  to access the dedicated safety refresher web page.

Log-in with your Purdue credentials and click on the link that best describes your status in our School to access the training material relevant to you. For PUID number please put in only the numbers, without the dash. You’ll find full instructions in my initial announcement (see below).

 

In addition to the online training, people working in a lab, including faculty responsible for research labs will need to turn in the CHP certification for their lab specific CHP, within 30 days of completing the online training.

 

Should you have any questions, please let me know.

 

Sincerely,

Gabriela

On behalf of the ChE Safety Committee

Hello Everyone!

 

Following REM’s recommendation and to comply with Purdue and OSHA safety training requirements, the ChE Safety Committee developed an on-line safety training refresher. This yearly refresher training is required for all ChE faculty, staff, graduate students and post-doctoral research associates and should be completed within 30 days of its announcement (you will receive an email every year with instructions on how to complete the on-line training and the due date). This year, everyone should complete the on-line safety training refresher by the end of Sunday, May 17, 2015.

 

You can access the training material on any device linked to the internet; however, you will need a computer/laptop to take the quiz at the end and complete the training (the link to the quiz is not active from a mobile device such as an iPad or other tablets).

 

Instructions:

1.       Access the ChE safety website https://engineering.purdue.edu/ChE/AboutUs/Safety.html and click on the Annual Safety Training Refresher link under the Training heading. Alternatively, you can follow this link: https://engineering.purdue.edu/Intranet/Groups/Schools/ChE/SafetyTraining.html to access the dedicated safety refresher web page.

2.       Log-in with your Purdue credentials and click on the link that best describes your status in our School to access the training material relevant to you.

3.       You can choose to download the training material on your computer or open it directly in your browser (in this case you will not be able to access to the training material during the quiz).

4.       Read and understand the training material and follow the active links in the document (where applicable) for more information on specific topics.

5.       Follow the “Take the quiz” link at the end of the document and take the short quiz to complete this part of the training. Once you complete the quiz, you will receive an email confirming that you completed the training. Print that email (or save it) and keep it for your own records.

6.       If applicable, read the updated lab specific Chemical Hygiene Plan (CHP) developed for the lab you work in (or, as PI, are responsible for) and complete the certification page (page 85 in the CHP template posted on REM’s website: https://www.purdue.edu/ehps/rem/home/booklets/chp2014.pdf).

7.       Turn in the signed CHP certification page to Gabriela Nagy (FRNY G051, email: nagyg@purdue.edu) within 30 days of quiz completion. A copy of this certification should also be kept with the lab’s safety records.

 

Please follow the instructions above and complete the ChE mandatory safety refresher training by the end of Sunday, May 17, 2015.

 

Should you have any questions, please let me know.

 

Sincerely,

Gabriela

On behalf of the ChE Safety Committee
