Guideline for enforcing the Containment Ordinance (CO)

The Containment Ordinance (CO) requires for all types of activities as a general safety measure the observance of a safety concept for the installation (Art. 12 and Appendix 4 para. 1 CO). This implementation guide describes in concrete terms how biosafety should be treated in an installation’s safety concept, and can therefore be used as instructions for drawing up, supplementing or monitoring such a concept. It also shows where interfaces with other aspects of safety could arise.
