Protecting people and the environment so MIT can improve the world.
We partner with the entire MIT community to maintain a safe, healthy, and environmentally sustainable place to learn, work, live, and play. We develop practical, efficient, sustainable, and adaptable solutions that identify, assess, and minimize risk, continually striving to meet new challenges to support innovation in the research community.
The packaging, handling, and transport of Dangerous Goods and Hazardous Materials (HAZMAT) via air, land, or sea are governed by stringent regulations. MIT members can receive specialized training to become certified to ship certain hazardous materials themselves, but every chemical shipment still needs to be approved by trained EHS Office staff.
From training modules to interactive zoom sessions and one-on-one consultations, MIT EHS is offering the MIT community workplace ergonomics resources, assessment tools, and safety guidance for remote work.
