Safety at CARS

Guidelines

CARS operates within the safety regulations of The University of Chicago, the U.S. Department of Energy, Argonne National Laboratory and the APS itself, supplemented where appropriate by guidelines from other agencies or safety authorities. The Executive Director of CARS is responsible for the safe operation of the CARS beamlines and the associated experimental facilities.

The purpose of the CARS Safety Committee is to identify hazards and to monitor the safety practices associated with CARS activities. It also addresses and responds to the safety concerns of CARS members and CARS staff.

Safety documents such as training requirements, reference documents, user training courses and experimental safety forms are available for consultation online.
