How to answer: Every lab has safety protocols that technicians must follow to ensure personal safety and lab integrity. Assure the interviewer that you will review the lab's safety manual at the start of the working day and that you will arrive at the lab properly dressed. Emphasise the fact that you understand the importance of communication with your colleagues when placing and labelling samples correctly. Let the interviewer know that you plan to ensure that your workspace is clean and organised at the end of the working day.
