All users requesting an access card and radiation badge are required to watch the on-line Safety Orientation, and, depending on the nature of the experiment, additional safety training will be required if, for instance, you are working with lasers or if you are identified as a nuclear energy worker. This is an online presentation that introduces employees to some of the major safety concerns and procedures at TRIUMF. It is mandatory that users of the TRIUMF facility, and contractors view this lesson. No unsupervised access to the site is allowed without first completing this course.

Additional training will be identified your TRIUMF contact and scheduled by the safety trainer as soon as possible after arrival. The Individual Training Plan Form is available on-line.

The mandatory Site Safety Orientation must be viewed prior to the issuance of any Access Cards or keys. This can be done prior to coming to TRIUMF, or it can be viewed upon arrival. In viewing prior to your arrival, your log-on information will be captured and our Visitor Services Coordinator will be advised that you have already received your basic site safety orientation and you can proceed to step 5.
