Safety and Training


SLAC Safety Training

For all employees and users, you can always examine your training status from the SLAC Training Assessment (STA) system, with the STA Direct link take you to the report selection page, where you can check what training are mandatory for you and its status. For new employees/users, you need to go through the Safety Comes First checklist. In general, the following training are mandatory for everyone:

The links above contains instructions on how to take the courses online (followed by challenge exams for 219,115). Even for those who start with only a short stay at SLAC before going to CERN, these trainings are recommended and still to a large extent apply to working at CERN (in some ways may be even more important for our own protection).

For special detector activities at CERN, additional training are also required:

There is one additional required element for safety: Job Hazard Analysis and Mitigation (JHAM). The following are some JHAMs with wide applicability. You are encouraged to modify or create new ones that suit your situation better.

Completed JHAMs should be reviewed annually and signed by Su Dong or Charlie Young (for employee in ATLAS department and ATLAS users).
