[Che-student-staff-list] Safety updates and reminders

[Nagy, Gabriela]

Hello everyone,

As we finally restart lab-based research operations in FRNY, I wanted to update you on a few important safety points.
Safety Training:

  1.  As I mentioned in my email on Friday, the mandatory Covid-19 On-Site Employee Safety Training developed by REM was recently moved to SuccessFactors.  Completion of this training is recorded in SuccessFactors (in "Training History"), and you will not receive an email confirmation upon completion. If you completed the training before June 8th, and logged the completion of this training in the old system (on REM's website), you will need to redo the training in SuccessFactors to count as training; there is a 1 question "verification quiz" at the end of the training in SuccessFactors). More information here: https://www.purdue.edu/ehps/rem/worker/COVID-19%20Resources.html.
  2.  The "Covid-19 specific safety protocols for FRNY" document was updated to reflect this change, along with other needed changes (all changes made are highlighted in yellow).
  3.  The "ChE Safety Training Required for a Safe Return to Forney" on our safety webpage (https://engineering.purdue.edu/ChE/aboutus/safety) was updated to reflect these changes.
  4.  If you already logged the completion of your "ChE Return to Campus Safety Training" before the Covid-19 On-Site Employee Safety Training was moved to SuccessFactors, you do not need to log it again.
  5.  Staff members approved to return to the building should complete the Covid-19 On-Site Employee Safety Training in their SuccessFactors  and the ChE specific annual safety refresher training relevant to their role. You will also need to log the completion of your training by completing the "Training sign-in sheet<https://purdue.ca1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_6hfVnmFl6TtwRJX>".

Other important reminders:

  1.  Please honor your commitment to the Protect Purdue Pledge, practice social distancing and wear a face mask, as directed by the University, at all times in Forney, unless you are alone in an office. It came to my attention recently that some researchers do not follow this safety rule. I wanted to remind you that noncompliance with the University set rules and with the ChE specific safety protocols may result in dismissal from on-site work until social distancing guidelines are lifted.
  2.  To be effective in reducing the spread of Covid-19, please make sure you wear the face mask/covering correctly, as shown below (visual from CDC):

  1.  At this time you should only come to campus for lab-based research; all other activities that can be performed remotely should continue to be performed remotely until further notice. Your lab has to be in "Green" status, and you have to complete all relevant training before returning to the building for research activities.

Should you have any questions or concerns, please let me know.

Stay safe,
Gabriela
On behalf of the ChE Safety Committee
