LS3 Safety Spotlight: coordinating activities at CERN: declaring interventions – a key step
As mentioned in our June and July articles, CERN has put in place a structure to meet the need to manage and oversee concurrent activities during Long Shutdown 3 (LS3). One of the key measures is systematically declaring interventions. Why declare your activities? This is a key step in obtaining formal authorisation to carry out

Waste management during LS3: we all have a role to play
Long Shutdown periods generate large volumes of waste across CERN sites. During Long Shutdown 3 (LS3), maintaining good waste management practices is particularly important to ensure safety and minimise environmental impacts and costs. As part of its environmental and sustainable development strategy, CERN has set environmental objectives for 2030, including specific targets related to waste

Improving the CERN Meyrin site: ongoing works and how to get around
As many members of the CERN community return from the summer break, a number of infrastructure projects are under way across the sites. While these works may temporarily affect traffic, parking and access, they form part of a broader effort to develop and improve CERN’s campuses. The projects highlighted below are among the major infrastructure works currently

Help find CERN’s missing history
The CERN Heritage Collection holds over 350 objects that help tell the story of CERN’s scientific and technical achievements. Many of these objects go on display in the Science Gateway and are loaned to museums all over the world. For some of these objects, key information is missing: what they were used for, who used them, when and why. In other cases, an object’s

Facility Managers pilot project: bringing support closer to CERN building users
The Site Operations Sector is running a Facility Managers pilot project to improve the working environment in selected CERN buildings. The pilot introduces two dedicated Facility Managers to serve as local points of contact for people working in and using the buildings. By being regularly on site and proactively monitoring facilities, they help improve safety
