Hazard Communication Training -- The Office of Health, Safety and Environment offers training programs to educate Hopkins personnel about maintaining safe work environments. Two programs are offered on a routine basis on the Homewood campus.

Hazard communication training helps employees find information associated with any material in their workplace. The training is required by federal and state law for all employees on a onetime basis. Employees hired in 1998, 1999 and 2000 received the training if they attended new employee orientation. All other employees should attend one of the hazard communication training sessions, scheduled to take place on the second Wednesday of each month at 3 p.m. in the Arellano Theater in Levering Union.

JHU employees who handle or are exposed to materials containing blood or body fluids as part of their normal duties must attend a bloodborne pathogen training session once a year. This training, mandated by federal and state law and Johns Hopkins University policy, takes place at 3:30 p.m. in Arellano Theater in Levering Union.

The final scheduled date for the hazard communication and bloodborne pathogen safety training programs, is Wed., May 9. For more information, call the Office of Health, Safety and Environment at 410-516-8798.
