Berkeley Lab’s Accelerator Technology & Applied Physics (ATAP) Division will lead this year’s Multi-Lab Safety Week, scheduled for June 10 to 13, 2025. Partnering with ATAP are the Lab’s Facilities and Security & Emergency Services (SES) Divisions, and colleagues from Argonne National Laboratory (ANL), Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL), Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (Fermilab), and the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center (SLAC) National Laboratory.  The agenda and details of the seminar can be found in the flyer.

This year’s theme is “Learning from Experimental Planning,” with a focus on mechanical safety. It will include seminars on Cryogen Safety: Ensuring Safe Operations, featuring speakers from SLAC and Fermilab, as well as Hazard Recognition in Worker-Planned Work, with speakers from Berkeley Lab and BNL. Additionally, in a new feature, the Lab’s SES Division will hold a Safety During Emergencies Fair on Friday, June 13, 2025.

As in previous years, Multi-Lab Safety Week will be an all-hands, all-hazards event featuring ongoing learning and education opportunities. ATAP Programs will set aside times that work best for them to participate in specific safety activities during this annual event. The event will focus on:

Ongoing learning and education:

  • Utilize the time to complete the Work Planning and Control training
  • Learn from the safety-themed seminars
  • Learn about Safety During Emergencies by attending the SES event on June 13, 2025

Housekeeping:

  • Workplace cleanups and self-assessments
  • Cross-divisional management walkthroughs and have peers review labs, shops, and offices

The Zoom number for the kickoff meeting and the seminars is the same and shown below for your convenience:

Plans will be coordinated with Program Heads and Program Safety Coordinators. With the Division Director’s approval, programs facing significant and unavoidable project schedule conflicts may opt to conduct some activities before the designated Safety Week. Detailed instructions will be communicated in the coming weeks. In the meantime, please be ready to participate in this highly beneficial investment in safety.

We look forward to seeing you there!
