Eye and face protection is vitally important in workspaces that may pose risk of injury or harmful exposure to a worker鈥檚 eyes or face such as 

  • flying objects, particles, and dust (e.g., grinding, cutting, hammering, sawing)
  • splashes (including droplets and sprays) from chemicals and biological material
  • radiation (e.g., welding) and lasers
  • abrasive and molten material

In 2021, eye protection became mandatory in 糖心vlog官方入口 laboratories as a measure to ensure the safety of all laboratory workers. The details of eye and face protection can be found on the site including a 糖心vlog官方入口 Eye and Face Protection Standard Operating Procedure (SOP). Each supervisor will be responsible for including eye and face protection in all applicable site-specific SOPs. 

For any questions or concerns please contact hse@upei.ca for assistance.

Join Island Studies for the first of our Island Studies film series on October 28, at 7:00 pm in SDU Main Building 211. We will screen "The Grand Seduction," a comedy about a small fishing community in Newfoundland that tries to seduce a doctor from away into being their doctor to secure a contract for a factory to be built on the island. Following the screening, Island Studies faculty will lead a discussion about the film, drawing out its island themes of isolation, limited resources, and the resilience of Islanders. 

This event is free. All students and faculty are welcome. The event runs from 7:00 to 10:00 pm. 

Do you know what to do if there is a building evacuation? Are you a chief warden, floor warden, or guardian for your building? Do you have questions about your role as a warden or guardian or the evacuation procedures for your building?

糖心vlog官方入口 Health, Safety, and Environment, and Security Services will hold a building emergency plan session for chief wardens, floor wardens, and guardians on Wednesday, October 30, 2024, at 9:00 am in Bill and Denise Andrew Hall Room 142.

Got a business idea that鈥檚 haunting you? Don鈥檛 let it ghost you! Join the Catherine Callbeck Centre for Entrepreneurship for MiniPitch on Wednesday, October 30, from 5:30 to 7:00 pm. It鈥檚 a fang-tastic chance for students to brew up their presentation skills and conjure up new ideas. Just prepare a spine-tingling three-minute pitch, face a ghoulish three-minute Q&A, and sink your teeth into a two-minute feedback session to discover what you did wonderfully, where you can lift your spirits, and what spells you should consider to move forward with your idea! Don't be scared! It's going to be a scream!

The first eight presenters to register will have their spots booked, and we will have some wildcard spots at the event if you don鈥檛 get registered in time!

The New Orford String Quartet will perform on the SDU Stage in the Dr. Steel Recital Hall on November 1, 2024, at 7:30 pm. Comprised of elite orchestral leaders and soloists Andrew Wan, Jonathan Crow, Sharon Wei, and Brian Manker, the quartet has been described by the Toronto Star as 鈥渘othing short of electrifying.鈥

This is a rare opportunity for Island audiences to hear a truly world-class string quartet. The program will feature Mozart's emotionally intense Quartet in D minor; the PEI premiere of M茅tis composer Ian Cusson's Yume (Dreams), inspired by Akira Kurosawa's film of the same name; and Franz Schubert's Death and the Maiden, a masterpiece of haunting melodies and vigorous intensity.

Accessible parking is available, and the theatre has an accessible entrance via elevator.

Please note that Accessibility Services will be closed (with the exception of testing) on October 25 from 9:00 to 11:00 am.
