Welcome to Bodega Marine Laboratory!

All lab workers at the University of California need to take some basic lab safety training before they are allowed to work in a lab.

Step 1: Complete the UC Fundamentals of Laboratory Safety

Start the UC Fundamentals of Laboratory Safety Class

You can take the class as many times as you need to until you pass it. 

If you get an error message that says "User account does not exist in SumTotal system", please email the Staff Development and request a Learning Center Account so you can complete the course.

Step 2: Hazard Assessment Review

Log in to Risk and Safety Solutions

Under Action Items, you should see the hazard assessments for any labs you are a member of. Read the information and then click the continue button on the top right of the pane until you have reviewed all the pages for this lab.

If you get an error here, you need to be added the lab roster before you can accomplish this step.  Contact your PI or lab manager to get added to the lab.

Step 3: PPE Training

After completed the hazard assessments in step 2, stay on the same screen and under Next Steps at the bottom of the right pane you can complete your PPE training. You can also go directly to the PPE training using the link below.

PPE Safety Training

If you get an error here, you need to be added the lab roster before you can accomplish this step.  Contact your PI or lab manager to get added the lab.

Step 4: Review Campus Safety Documents

  • Chemical Hygiene Plan
  • Safety Net 13 Guidelines for Chemical Spill Control
  • Safety Net 8 Chemical Waste Disposal Guidelines
    Or take the Hazardous Waste Management and Minimization class

Step 5: Review Departmental Safety Documents

  • Illness and Injury Prevention Program
  • Emergency Action Plan

Step 6: Review Lab Specific SOPs

These can be found in your lab binder.

Step 7: Complete the Site Specific Training Form

Download the Form Here

Initial the following sections:

  • Spill Procedures
  • Department Emergency Action Plan
  • Laboratory Safety Manual (incl. Chemical Hygiene Plan)
  • Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs)
  • Department IIPP
  • UC Laboratory Safety Fundamentals
  • Safety Suite online tools
  • Hazardous Waste

Then bring it to your PI/Lab manger so they can complete the rest of the form with you.
