Curriculum Biosafety is looking for instructors
Since 1999, the Ordinance on the Contained Use of Organisms (Containment, Ordinance, ContainO) and the ordinance on occupational safety in biotechnology (SAMV) stipulate that any activity involving genetically modified or pathogenic organisms be supervised by a person responsible for all aspects of biological safety, the biosafety officer (BSO).
The tasks of a BSO can be difficult: they serve as information agent for all biosafety questions from colleagues or the management as well as from external authorities.
Representatives of the FOEN, FOPH, SUVA, FECB and ERFA BIO, in collaboration with professional BSO and private biosafety experts, have thus developed a Curriculum Biosafety to harmonize the biosafety standards within Switzerland on a high professional level. Under the supervision of these authorities the study supervision (sanu) organizes every year a series of general training courses on biosafety, which are designed according to biosafety levels and all held by renowned biosafety experts.
