This is a guide for Managers and Principle Investigators detailing the induction process for their new starters. It will cover new °×С½ãÂÛ̳-based LCN Staff and Students, including CDT students.
New °×С½ãÂÛ̳-based Staff and Students
These are people who are enrolled on a research program or are employed by °×С½ãÂÛ̳ and have a myHR account.
Building Access
Building access will only be given after the successful completion of:
- An in-person Fire Tour (TN086 Form). Completed with the Safety and Facilities Manager.
- .
As part of the induction an will be sent to users, which covers specific departmental information. A full list of Mandatory Training Courses, which are not necessary for building access but must also be completed, can be found below.
Lab Access
For researchers who are primarily based in the lab, they must complete the following in order to gain access:
- A recorded lab induction with the lab manager.
- in order to state they understand their responsibilities.
- Principles of laboratory safety at °×С½ãÂÛ̳ training
Further courses based on specific hazards can be found below.
Desk Allocation
Desks in the LCN are not allocated, rather people may use desks on floors that align with their research area / group.
Cleanroom Access
After users have been granted building access they can then set up a clean room access by following the steps of the Cleanroom Induction Flyer, including creating a PPMS account. Please contact the Cleanroom Team for more information.
- Mandatory Training for All Staff
