Annual OHS Screening


There is an OHS requirement for all animal users at Emory University. This screening questionnaire must be completed at least annually by all users of animals at Emory University. All individuals listed on IACUC protocols as working with animals will need to have completed the Emory IACUC OHS questionnaire within the last year before annual renewals of IACUC protocols will be granted.

The PI and everyone on the research team are responsible for completing the online screening questionnaire.

How to complete your 2023 OHS Screening:

Personnel from the Emory Primate Center (EPC): Contact the EPC Safety Office to arrange for your OHS screening

Personnel outside the EPC:

1. Personnel being added to an IACUC protocol need to sign up for OHS screening in ELMS.

After finishing the online screening, each person will either be cleared or will be instructed to complete an additional questionnaire in the Emory HOME system.
