Which individuals should you contact for safety emergencies?

Knowing who to contact in a safety emergency means reaching the people who are responsible for handling hazards and coordinating a proper response in the lab. In this scenario, the designated individuals are Daria—the person in charge of the lab’s safety and communication, the Main Office—which acts as the central point to report incidents and mobilize resources, and the DPSEP—the campus safety and emergency planning department that oversees incident response and safety protocols. Calling all three ensures immediate containment, proper risk assessment, and the correct officials who will document and follow up on the event. Relying on campus security alone can miss hazard specifics or required procedures, and an academic advisor or bookstore staff aren’t equipped to manage safety emergencies.
