health hazards. The route and duration of the inspection are determined by the compliance officer. During the inspection, the officer may: Observe safety and health conditions and practices Consult with employees Take instrument readings Examine records Collect air samples Measure noise levels Survey existing engineering controls Monitor employee exposure to toxic fumes, gases and dusts For more information or questions about OSHA guidelines, contact the Division of Occupational Health and Safety at (301) 496 2960. – S.T.A.R.S. The Division of Occupational Health and Safety (DOHS) has a new home for its Safe Techniques Advance Research by safety training Science (S.T.A.R.S.) “Learn Doing” laboratory program. Since 2007, the S.T.A.R.S. program has used laboratory space donated by Institutes across campus to teach Summer Internship Program (SIP) students, ages 21 and younger, laboratory safety. The new teaching laboratory was included in a DOHS renovation at the end of summer 2014 in Building 13, Room 3E60. The idea behind S.T.A.R.S. is to place students in a lab setting to teach laboratory safety rather than lecture in an auditorium. Small group learning allows young scientists to learn in a more effective and interactive way. The floor plan of the laboratory allows flexibility in teaching multiple aspects of safety -- chemical, physical and different levels of biological safety.
