Spring cleaning serves as a reminder that a clean and organized lab leads to a safe lab, however, lab safety isn’t a once-a-year task but a continuous effort. Regularly reviewing storage practices, ensuring PPE availability, and keeping workspaces organized contributes to a safer and more organized research and learning environment. By making safety a priority, we foster a culture of compliance and continuous improvement, benefiting all who work and learn in our laboratories. Let’s work together to keep our labs safe, clean, and well-maintained throughout the year!

As spring arrives, so do the geese! These familiar campus residents are returning to the Fort Garry campus, where they share space with students, staff, and faculty. While geese are accustomed to human activity, they can be territorial during nesting season. To ensure peaceful coexistence, observe geese from a distance, respect posted nesting signs, and never feed or antagonize them.

Recreational personal mobility devices (PMDs), such as bicycles and e-scooters, contribute to the University of Manitoba's Climate Action Plan. However, for safety reasons, these devices are not allowed inside university buildings or at entrances. PMDs should be stored securely, avoiding obstruction of common areas. Designated bike and e-bike parking spaces are available, though charging infrastructure is not provided. If a PMD is necessary for research or learning, a risk assessment must be conducted. Employees and students requiring accommodations should contact the appropriate university services.
