It is the policy of TSRI to require that all lasers and laser
systems be operated in accordance with all applicable regulations
as well as the guidance found within the American National Standards
Institute (ANSI) Z136.1, Standard for the Safe Use of Lasers. The
primary objective of TSRI's Laser Safety Program is to ensure that
radiation exposures resulting from laser use are minimized and that
under no circumstance does the radiation exposure reaching the human
eye and/or skin exceed the maximum permissible exposure limit; additionally,
the Laser Safety Program has been designed to ensure adequate protection
from collateral hazards such as electrical shock, fire, chemical
exposure, etc.
