Protecting people and the environment so MIT can improve the world.
We partner with the entire MIT community to maintain a safe, healthy, and environmentally sustainable place to learn, work, live, and play. We develop practical, efficient, sustainable, and adaptable solutions that identify, assess, and minimize risk, continually striving to meet new challenges to support innovation in the research community.
Lithium-ion and Lithium-polymer batteries are used widely across the MIT campus. These batteries are found in consumer electronics and power tools along with many research devices requiring portable electrical power. They are often chosen by researchers for advantages that include lightweight, higher energy density, low memory effect, and longer life span.
From training modules to interactive zoom sessions and one-on-one consultations, MIT EHS is offering the MIT community workplace ergonomics resources, assessment tools, and safety guidance for remote work.
