1.6 Investigations Branch Activities & Safety
Analysts may be involved with activities traditionally associated with the
Investigations Branch. These duties include, but are not limited to investigations,
wharf exams, inspections, sample collections, and recall checks. The
exposure the analysts receive related to these duties may be different from
those found in the laboratory. Prior to starting the assignment, review
the duties and the expected hazards with the supervisor, CHO, or the lead investigator.
Refer to the 'Investigations Operations Manual' (IOM) for further safety
guidance related to these duties. A copy of the IOM can be viewed by contacting
the local Investigations Branch or on-line at: http://www.fda.gov/ora/inspect_ref/iom/
