Chem Stockroom Staff Training

Is it my job to Clean after students?

• No, I am not a maid

• Yes

• No, the next shift will do it.

• Maybe

Is it my duty to enforce safety policies?

• No. Why should I care about student safety.

• Maybe, depends if I like the student.

• Yes

• Maybe, only when I am asked to do safety checks

If a TA is routinely Late, I will...

• Do nothing

• Notify stockroom manager each time

• Notify stockroom manager at the end of the quarter

• Give the TA dirty looks and attiude when they pick up the key

In the middle of the week, the stockroom runs out of a compound. I will...

• Immediately notify the stockroom manager

• Search chemical inventory to check stock and other floors

• Tell students/TA that we are out of the compound

• Gather from all the labs and ration amongst the labs

If I know that I will show up late to my shift, I will..

• Sneak into the stockroom using the other door

• Notify my Manager

• Notify my Coworkers

• I am already late. I will skip work today.

I have access to the SOPs via...

• What are SOPs?

• The EH&S website

• Google team drive

• SOS Folder

Proper PPE while working in the stockroom are...

• Fire Resistant Blue Lab Coat

• Safety Goggles and a Face Shield

• Safety Glasses

• Nitrile gloves

When Refilling chemicals, I will...

• Read labels correctly

• Take note of remaining stock of chemicals and prepare more if needed

• Why refill? Students will bring the empty bottles if they need more.

The most accurate glassware to prepare solutions

• Beaker

• Graduated Cylinder

• Erlenmeyer Flask

If I feel uncomfortable handling any particular compound, I will...

• Ask my coworker or manager for assistance
