<p class="MsoNormal">Hello EH&S Research Community,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>CSHEMA (Campus Safety Health and Environmental Management) has recognized <strong><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">February 13th - 17th</span></strong> as <strong><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">Lab Safety Awareness Week</span></strong>. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p>All week long <strong><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">EH&S</span></strong> will be highlighting ways to support a safe research environment. Follow along on our Instagram page: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/ucrehs/">@ucrehs</a> and online
at our <a href="https://ehs.ucr.edu/laboratory#lab_safety_awareness_week_february_13th_17th">Laboratory</a> page for daily tips and reminders! Tag us on Instagram <a href="https://www.instagram.com/ucrehs/">@ucrehs</a> showing us how you keep it safe in the
lab! <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I have also included our February 2023 12 Months of Research Safety topic – LHAT Acknowledgement. Lab Hazard Assessment (LHAT) is the tool we use to communicate basic hazards you may encounter in the laboratory, and what PPE should be
worn to protect yourself. Review the attached flyer to learn how to acknowledge your research lab’s LHAT.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">If you have questions about anything research safety related, please send us a message at
<a href="mailto:ehslaboratory@ucr.edu">ehslaboratory@ucr.edu</a>. All of our previous 12 Months of Research Safety flyers are available on our website at
<a href="https://ehs.ucr.edu/laboratory/12monthsofresearchsafety">https://ehs.ucr.edu/laboratory/12monthsofresearchsafety</a>. Subscription to this listserv is based on membership in an active LHAT and is updated on a monthly basis.
