DOE Approves Lab’s
Safety, Health Program
The Department of Energy has approved Berkeley Lab’s Worker Safety and Health Program, or PUB-3851, which defines the Lab’s worker safety and health requirements and specifies enforcement mechanisms. The regulations are generally the same OSHA rules that the Lab follows, but the enforcement mechanism is new, which includes fines. The plan is required under a new federal safety regulation, 10 CFR 851, which requires DOE sites to establish a worker protection program that reduces or prevents the potential for injuries, illnesses, and accidental losses by providing workers with a safe and healthful workplace. The program, an extension of the Lab’s Integrated Safety Management System, was developed over the past two years by the Environment Health & Safety Division, in conjunction with the DOE’s Berkeley Site Office. Go here for more information. Go here to read PUB-3851.

Lab Parking, Access
Difficult Tomorrow
Berkeley Lab will be hosting Gov. Schwarzenegger’s symposium on low-carbon fuel tomorrow in Building 66 from 10:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. Parking around Buildings 62, 66 and 67 will be limited, and restricted in the Blackberry Canyon lot. Events at the campus's Greek Theater and Math Sciences Research Institute will also complicate Lab access. Employees should take public transportation or discuss work alternatives, like telecommunting, with their supervisors.
Potluck for 'Active'
Participants Today
Employees who completed the 'Active for Life' program are invited to attend a potluck lunch today in Perseverance Hall (noon to 1 p.m.). The program, sponsored by Berkeley Lab's Health Care Facilitator's office, improves fitness and health through a point system, which is tracked online.
Share Thoughts on Food
Service Through Survey
Employees are asked to fill out a brief, five-minute survey on the food services provided at Berkeley Lab. The feedback will help the cafeteria offer the best possible customer service. Go here to take the anonymous survey.
