Improperly disposed cigarette butts can cause fires. If you smoke, do your part to ensure fire safety at the lab.
As previously communicated in the January 2022 News at Work article, site security is a responsibility we all share to help keep the people, science and facilities of Fermilab safe. In accordance with the DOE-approved Site Security Plan and recently updated Fermilab Access Policy & Procedure, you are required to display your site access credentials (Fermi ID Badge or Fermilab Access Sticker) while on site at all times and remove your site access credential when off site. The security team routinely…
With the recent drop in temperature and our first real snowfall of the season now behind us, here are some tips to stay safe: Please take care when walking to and from your car in the parking lots.

Hazard Analysis forms from these systems will only be available as read-only after Jan. 1 and therefore will not be valid documents for performing work as information will not be able to be changed to coincide with current work conditions. Work…
