EP-CMX-GEM R&D AND PRODUCTION LABORATORY SAFETY FILE

The CMS GEM muon group is in charge of the construction and the quality control of 161 large triple-GEM detectors for the upgrade of the CMS muon end-caps. The large majority of the production will take place at CERN, in a new facility specifically built for this purpose. This production complex, composed of a clean room for the assembly of the detectors and a research laboratory for quality control and commissioning, must be ready before the start of the mass-production. The construction of the new GEM facility required a complete review and update of various safety features such as the smoke detection system, emergency exits, extinguishers, and other specific items such as the identification of radiations zones. The student will participate in the elaboration of a general safety files including the identification of all possible hazards, risk evaluation and actions taken to minimize or suppress all risks in the research laboratory. This document will be submitted to the CERN safety department for final approval. Additionally the student will assist the creation of an online safety course based on the safety file. This Course will be added to the CERN official online training center and it will be mandatory to access the laboratory.
