New Employee Training
All new and returning employees must complete new employee orientation training and safety training prior to starting work. Begin by going to New Employee Orientation. You will need to either watch a video or read through a PDF, depending on the topic. This is followed by taking a quiz. After taking the quiz, proceed to the next topic using the “Proceed to:…” link at the right of each page. The second portion of the training consists mainly of safety training for employees who will be working in the field or greenhouses. However, there are components for laboratory safety, ergonomics, and much more. The second portion of the training can be accessed by going straight to the Safety Training Videos index page. Information about additional safety training can be found on the Safety Training page. The Supervisors’ Safety Training Checklist shows all the things a new employee needs to know. Most of the items on the list are included in the orientation and safety training, but some items may need to be customized for each program. If you are a supervisor, please be sure to review the checklist to see what hands-on training is expected to be provided by you.
