The many challenging conditions and unique cases presented by research at FSEL must be managed in a safe and effective manner to protect personnel and to fulfill research goals. To that end, FSEL has developed a safety guide to provide the necessary safety information. The policies and procedures detailed in this guide represent not only applicable legal requirements for workplace safety, but also the collective experience and understanding of our team of professionals as related to the maintenance of a safe and effective research environment. Personnel associated with FSEL are expected to maintain familiarity with this material, to abide by its specific policies, and to apply our central doctrine of safety to every work-related activity.
