Extracurricular Activities The CEISME frequently organizes cultural events and recreation. A collective email will be sent to you to acquaint you to the various activities. Part of the cost is generally supported by the CEISME. Several sports (hockey, badminton, volleyball) or other are also practiced by the center staff (the idea is to have a change of pace and get to know eachother). As well as all events (Christmas, Halloween, pool tournament, etc.) are marked by friendly gatherings. These meetings are organized either by the recreational club of the CEISME or or by the employees of INRS Energy and Materials CRIEM. Marc-Olivier Bussiere ([email protected]) and Joel Maltais ([email protected]) are the official representatives of the CRIEM. It is important to note that all members of the CEISME are automatically members of the CRIEM. If you have any suggestions for activities or outings, do not hesitate to let us know! A reimbursement policy for sports and activities is also in place in the INRS. You can get 50% of the costs back up to $165/year, upon presentation of a receipt. This has been put in place to overcome the lack of facilities in the INRS-EMT. For repayment, see Nathalie Métras with your enrollment contract. Réalisé par le CÉISME Automne 2012 Page 15 9.

Accommodation and Amenities 10.1 Searching for housing To find accommodation in Montreal and the south shore of Montreal, the best way is to see the posters in malls or read the classified ads in local newspapers: L’Information, La Relève and la Seigneurie which cover the regions of Boucherville, Ste-Julie and Varennes. You can also visit the following websites: http://www.recherche-colocation.com/montreal.html http://montreal.kijiji.ca/ http://montreal.craigslist.ca/ http://ca.easyroommate.com/?l=2 The site PVTistes (pvtistes.net) will give you many tips for your life in Canada. For your information, living on the south shore costs slightly less than Montreal, but can be disturbing to enjoy the nightlife in Montreal and all the summer festivals. If you depend on public transportation, subways connecting Montreal to the south shore stop around 1:30 as well as the bus on the south shore. In Montreal, some neighborhoods are to be avoided if possible such as Montreal North and Pointe Saint-Charles as ... not recommended. Take into account the transport time for you to go to Varennes. Important: in Canada, the leases are signed for one year from July to July, non-cancelable (unless you find a replacement). Colocation can be useful if you do not want to deal with a lease. On the other hand, the payment of a deposit is PROHIBITED. Beware of scams! Another point to consider: If you choose the south shore, you will make friends who visit you from Montreal will have to tpay $ 3 to return to the island... 10.2 Telephone Subscription Réalisé par le CÉISME Automne 2012 Page 17 In Canada, you pay when you call, and also when you get a call! Take this into account in your choice operator (in the same style, internet packages often limit the amount of data that you can download...). Some packages offer unlimited everything (Chat-r, Public Mobile). Shop online to choose what fits you best and check coverage areas: Varennes, is a kind of black hole... The main providers in Montreal: http://www.chatrwireless.com http://www.publicmobile.ca www.rogers.com www.telusmobility.com www.koodomobile.com 10.3 Choosing a Bank In your home country, you have a credit card? Forget everything you know about credit cards! Here, we will offer you a debit card (you cannot spend more than you have) with a monthly limited number of operations. Some banks offer free accounts to students. Shop online to make your choice and make sure to look at banking fees, including the amount of international transfers. If you withdraw money at an ATM or a brank that is not yours, you pay! Choose a bank near you! http://www.rbcbanqueroyale.com www.scotiabank.com www.bmo.com www.desjardins.com Réalisé par le CÉISME Automne 2012 Page 18 11. Mechanical Workshop 11.1 Operation - To use a machine you must ask the person in charge of the workshop for the key: Claude Sirois. - You have to clean the machine after use and put the padlock and the key back in the right place. - When you borrow a tool from the workshop, you must register it on the sheet provided for this purpose and indicate where you will use it. 11.2 Security Regulations – You must always make sure you are familiar with the operation of the device you want to use and follow the safety rules. For this purpose, training will be necessary to have access to the workshop. - You must always wear safety glasses when you work with different devices. - You must also wear safety shoes (if you possess) or shoe enhancements when you work in the workshop (ask Claude Sirois: [email protected]). When in doubt, inform yourself with Mr. Sirois or members of the health and safety committee (see point 12.2) of the center. They will be happy to answer your questions or refer you to the right person. 11.3 Formation If you need training to use one of the machine's in the mechanical workshop simply present yourself to the workshop, it will be a pleasure to Claude Sirois help you. If you have any questions about anything regarding the mechanical workshop, just go to the workshop. Réalisé par le CÉISME Automne 2012 Page 19 12. Health and Security As part of the academic formation by INRS in the center the health and safety department should not be overlooked and always be paid attention to. Indeed, good ability to recognize, manage and prevent sources of danger is essential for future career scientists in the work environment. In addition, INRS has its health and safety policy available at the website http://www.inrs.ca/universite/gouvernance/reglementsinternes-politiques-procedures. The latter is in accordance with the health and safety act in Quebec, as well as with its regulations. All students must comply with the policies of the INRS, as implied in their signature code of ethics. To achieve this, the new student is invited to read his rights and duties in this regard. In addition, the committee of health and safety of the center provides workers and students with a manual on hygiene, health and safety at the center, which includes all the technical details of how to behave in specific laboratory environments. This guide should be read, understood and signed by each of the newcomers, students as well as staff members. Should the behavior differ from either the health and safety regulations or policies of the center, penalties up to expulsion of the curriculum or internship can be enforced. It is therefore important to observe basic safety in the laboratory. Wearing the coat is mandatory for the vast majority of laboratories; a sign at the entry is displayed if necessary. To get one, contact Hélène Tanguay at the reception. This also applies to safety glasses depending on the job, as well as any other personal protective equipment (PPE), these items are provided by your teacher. For information about health and safety at the center, consult the manual provided by the health and safety committee, contact Sylvain Gingras or any other party of the health and safety committee of the center if you have any questions.
