1 Risk Perception in Academic Laboratories Imke Schroeder, Ph.D. UC Center for Laboratory Safety UCLA ABChem 1/26/2018
2 Overview Background on risk perception Factors affecting risk perception in the laboratory Risk versus safety perception Impact of safety culture Conclusions and recommendations
3 Some Terminology Risk is a measure of the probability and severity of adverse effects Risk perception is the ability of an individual to discern a certain amount of risk Lunch Atop A Skyscraper', by Charles Ebbets in 1932 (National Safety Council, 2003)
4 Risk and Risk Perception
5 Inaccurately perceived risk can cause inadequate safety behavior
6 Facts Influencing Risk Perception Soft Facts Hazard Risk perception Hard Facts
7 Quantitative Measures of Risk Perception How do researchers perceive risk? International survey on Lab Safety Practices (2012) Analysis of responses from 991 researchers in academic U.S. laboratories Chi-square, ANOVA, regression analysis Schroeder et al, JCHAS, 2016
8 How do researchers perceive risk? Respondents I believe that the level of risk of the work conducted in my lab is: Low risk/very low risk Moderate risk High risk/very high risk Majority underestimates the risk of work in the lab Risk perception is independent on age and job experience Risk perception is independent on whether or not safety training was received
9 Risk Perception: Working alone and with hazards Researchers with high-risk perception Work more often alone in the lab Respondents 60% 40% 20% 0% Working alone in the day every day Low risk Moderate risk High risk Work more often with hazards - especially pyrophorics, human bodily fluids or tissues, animals and hazardous machines
10 Risk perception is influenced by major lab-related injuries Low risk Moderate risk High risk 0% 50% 100% Students and Postdocs 1 or more None deseretnews.com
11 Risk perception is influenced by major lab-related injuries Low risk Moderate risk High risk 0% 50% 100% Students and Postdocs 1 or more None Severity of the injury matters In accordance with Protection Motivation Theory: People are more likely to protect themselves when they anticipate negative consequences, have the desire to avoid them and feel they have the ability to take preventive measures * *Campell Institute: Risk Perception (NSC), 2013
12 Risk Perception Motivates Safety Behavior Students and Postdocs 100% 50% 0% Gloves Lab Coat Eye protection The higher the perceived risk the more consistently researchers wear PPE Not true for wearing gloves Industry safety behavior is independent of risk perception Safety behavior in industry is standardized Low risk Moderate risk High risk Schröder, Huang, Ellis, Gibson, Wayne, J Chem Health and Safety 23:12-23, 2016
13 "I feel that my lab is a safe place to work" The lower the perceived risk, the safer researchers feel
14 What affects feeling safe in the research environment?
15 Feeling safe at the work place Dependent on general safety training Dependent on hazard-specific training
16 Feeling safe at the work place Question: Which of the following statements best describes your laboratory in regards to safety? Safety is Feeling safe Neutral about feeling safe Not feeling safe 0% 20% 40% 60% 80% 100% Students and Postdocs Paramount important Very important Equal important to other lab activities Less important Low priority The more safety is of paramount importance or very important the safer researchers feel
17 Feeling safe is dependent on how safety is prioritized in the lab Safety Culture ü How we do things around here üa community where everyone cares about one s own and others well being
18 Feeling safe is dependent on how safety is prioritized in the lab Safety Culture
19 PIs Impact PI has no direct impact on risk perception BUT, PI impacts students feeling safe Not safe Neutral Safe My supervisor/lab manager/pi regularly checks to make sure I am performing my laboratory duties in a safe fashion using proper safety equipment 0% 20% 40% 60% 80% 100% Students and Postdocs Strongly agree Agree Neutral Disagree Strongly disagree
20 Impact of PI on Student Safety Injuries witnessed or personally experienced by students and postdocs (n=406) Students and postdocs 80% 60% 40% 20% 0% Major injuries Minor injuries ** ** ** ** 0 1 to 2 3 to to 2 3 to 5 6+ Lab Injuries PI monitors lab safety PI may or may not check safety PI does not monitor lab safety Schröder, Huang, Ellis, Gibson, Wayne, J Chem Health and Safety 23:12-23, 2016
21 Conclusions and Recommendations Risk perception is affected by: - working alone - types of hazards included in work - severe injuries or accidents experienced - feeling safe in the lab Feeling safe in the lab is affected by: - safety training - how safety is prioritized in the lab - PI or supervisor monitoring safety Engage leadership on all levels but especially PIs to monitor safety and discuss risks Provide risk assessment training
