Representatives from a variety of Penn offices will be available to answer questions about office ergonomics, personal safety, gender inequity, recycling, laboratory protective equipment, laboratory waste, rDNA registrations, training compliance, animal protocols, dangerous goods shipments, export controls and more. 

Several vendors will also be at the Fair with a variety of safety products to preview. Light refreshments will be served to attendees. Exciting prizes will be raffled to Penn faculty, staff and students participating in the Fair.
