The Principal Investigator (PI) or designee must provide the annual laboratory safety refresher training to research staff, which must include specific safety topics (see memo). For your convenience, the Site-Specific Training Record (SSTR) and Annual Safety Refresher (ASR) checklists were merged into the new SSTR Application. This simplifies the process and expedites compliance.
