  2. Biological Safety Training – Certificate Holder and User Training 3. SETTING UP A LAB Topics Covered: • Approval and Designation of Containment Level and Locations • Ryerson Biosafety Certificate • Equipment • Training • Contingency Planning RYERSON UNIVERSITY

  3. Biological Safety Training – Certificate Holder and User Training 3. SETTING UP A LABDesignation of Location • PHAC & CFIA regulates the classification of rooms based on level of hazard • Approval of laboratory design and classification of containment level • CL1 and CL2 level areas authorized by Biological Safety Officer • CL3 and CL4 areas requirecertification from PHAC for human pathogens and CFIA for animal pathogens RYERSON UNIVERSITY

  4. Biolgocial Safety Training – Certificate Holder and User Training 3. SETTING UP A LABBiosafety Certificate Before work begins with biological agents, an application for a Ryerson Biosafety Certificate is required to be submitted to the Biological Safety Officer reviewed and approved by BSO on behalf of the Biological Safety Committee RYERSON UNIVERSITY

  5. Biological Safety Cabinet (BSC) may be required in Containment Level 2 facilities: dependant on organism being used, amounts, procedures and potential for aerosol generation Certificate Holder to ensure BSC is certified prior to lab staff working with agents.

  6. Biological Safety Training – Certificate Holder and User Training 3. SETTING UP A LABTraining • Certificate Holder responsible to: • ensure that all lab personnel working with biological agents be trained on University policies and procedures and successfully complete an examination prior to commencing any work with biohazards. • supervise and document all hands-on lab training involving experimental procedures, techniques, etc. RYERSON UNIVERSITY

  7. Biological Safety Training – Certificate Holder and User Training 3. SETTING UP A LABContingency Planning • Utility failure may affect sample storage or an experiment: • Certificate Holder is required to provide Campus Planning with information and guidance for contingency planning for agents stored under the Certificate Holder’s control • Preplanning should include backup systems (e.g. power) or prearranged movement of samples into other unaffected secure areas RYERSON UNIVERSITY
