Employee Return-to-Site Training Module Now Available

May 27, 2020

The Lab has developed a new COVID-19 "return-to-site" training module that will be required training for all employees before they begin work on site. As the Lab prepares to resume operations over the coming months, all staff are required to take this training before returning to the Lab site.

This 15-minute training provides an overview of the enhanced safety and health requirements for staff when working on the Lab site. Topics include:

  • What the Lab is doing to mitigate the risk of infection
  • Completing a daily pre-entry screening
  • Social distancing
  • Proper types and use of face coverings
  • Personal hygiene best practices
  • Practicing appropriate protocols when in close proximity to others
  • Recognizing and responding to potential symptoms of virus in yourself and others

The training may be accessed and completed from any Internet-enabled computer or smartphone. No VPN access is needed. Bargaining unit staff will be given time to take this training when they initially return to the site; everyone else who is able should complete it remotely before coming back. If you are unable to complete this training off site, you will be required to complete it immediately upon arriving on site.

The training can be found at https://training.bnl.gov/Portal/TQ-covid .

Note: a separate but similar training module is being developed for supervisors and managers. If you are a supervisor or manager, please wait until that module is made available to take your training.
