Laboratory safety

There are general rules for working alone in a laboratory. There is also guidance on what a trainee or student may work with, and how they should be instructed.

In the fact box selected rules on how to work in a laboratory are listed. Furthermore, info leaflets and video instructions are shown to help employees, new employees, students, and trainees with respect to DTU's safety rules in the laboratory.

When you work in a laboratory, you must use the most appropriate protective equipment. We propose what kind of gloves you can use, when in contact with chemicals.
