The Lab’s 40-member strong custodial team reported no OSHA-recordable injuries for 20 months. This accomplishment is especially noteworthy as it came as the team took on new responsibilities due to COVID-19. https://stratcomm-elements.lbl.gov/2021/08/18/custodial-team-records-20-month-safety-record/

The Lab’s Facilities and Environmental Health and Safety divisions have made several changes to help mitigate the adverse effects before and during smoke events. https://stratcomm-elements.lbl.gov/2021/08/17/smoke-gets-in-your-eyes-mitigating-the-effects-of-wildfire-smoke/

In addition, many office supplies can be reused and sent to Excess Services. Details and tips can be found at cleanup.lbl.gov. https://cleanup.lbl.gov/
