Introduction
Following are the basic safety principles upon
which a Safety Program must be founded

• Safety is a management responsibility.
• Managers / supervisors must be held accountable
  for their groups performance.
• Safety performance must be accurately measured.
  Furthermore, this measurement must be proactive.
• The highest level of performance a supervisor can
  expect from the people he/she supervises is
  determined largely by his/her minimum acceptable
  standards.
• The organization must do whatever is necessary to
  ensure the safety and well being of its
  employees.
• Safety is a requirement, not an option.

  violations, the lab will be closed for a period
  defined by the FSB board. Reopening would be the
  decision of the faculty board and SST service.

Some simple COMPULSORY rules

• Respect the directives and always wear
  (chemicals)
• Protective glasses or goggles (for everyone)
• Protective blouse
• Long trousers
• Closed shoes, no sandals
• Specific protective gloves
• The lab door is always closed
• Leave free the emergency exits
• No food or drink in the lab
