Several
forms have been developed in order to assist the Principal Investigator
with the required submissions and filings required by the federal regulatory
agencies that have jurisdiction over research activities. The following
instructions are provided to assist you in completing these forms.
These forms are provided in Microsoft Word. Except where
otherwise noted, you may fill out the gray text areas and checkboxes
in Microsoft Word. Then you will need to print the forms, fill out any
fields that require manual input (e.g., signature), and submit them.
Form OHS-1 Occupational Health and Safety Questionnaire (Microsoft Word)
This Form is an internal document to be used for reporting animal related health issues such as hazards, bites, allergic reactions or sequelae you may feel are related to the direct handling of animals. Since information collected on this form is HIPAA-sensitive, all submissions will be kept in strictest confidentiality, and will only be available to the BioSafety Officer, Employee Health Service, and the USDA on demand. USDA is the federal agency requiring this activity, and it is a MANDATORY submission for any and all individuals working with vertebrate animals more than 5 hours per week. All individuals listed on IACUC Form 1, Section 3. “Co-Investigators and Other Personnel,” http://www.mssm.edu/iacuc/forms.shtml, must have a separate, signed OHS form filed with the BioSafety Officer annually.
Form BSO-1 Report of Laboratory Accident (Microsoft Word)
If YOU have had an accident / exposure, you are required to report the
incident if it involves HUMAN blood / body fluids. The purpose of the
report is to provide documentation that the illness that may develop
as a consequence of the incident is work-related.
