This is a document on safety manual
This manual outlines safety procedures for all staff at the Greenland Institute of Natural Resources, covering laboratory safety, chemical handling, hazardous waste, office ergonomics, and emergency protocols. It is designed to ensure no injuries, no long-term work-related ailments, and no undue physical stress. Staff must read and follow this manual, and a separate fieldwork manual is required for outdoor activities. Safety is managed by a committee with elected representatives and a safety director, who coordinate safety initiatives and resolve workplace hazards.
The manual includes practical advice on handling chemicals, using protective equipment, registering substances, and managing hazardous waste. It also covers workplace ergonomics, first aid, fire safety, and risk assessments. Staff are encouraged to consult safety representatives or the committee if they have questions or concerns about safety procedures.
The safety committee (SiU) consists of 7 members.
The MSDS can be found in the laboratory office or on the F drive.
