Student Safety
It is important to follow the standards for health and safety, to ensure the supervisor and students know and are acclimatized to spaces (labs and offices) as well as regulations when going on field trips or leaving campus to collect data, etc.
It is the supervisor’s responsibility to ensure their student is adequately prepared to work in their specific areas of research. Responsibilities of Faculty Members and Supervisors are listed in section 3 of the U of A Policies and Procedures On-Line (UAPPOL): Environment, Health and Safety Policy Appendix B: Environment, Health and Safety Responsibilities: https://policiesonline.ualberta.ca/PoliciesProcedures/Procedures/EHS-Policy-Appendix-B- Environment-Health-and-Safety-Responsibilities.pdf
Additional health and safety regulation information is also available on Risk Management’s website: http://www.rms.ualberta.ca
