“Safety is a Personal
Decision that Impacts Others on a Daily Basis”
Our faculty,
staff and students bring a wealth of expertise to our institutions. They are vital to our mission of research,
teaching and service to everyone within and outside of our universities’ community. This expertise requires our institutions to
demonstrate its leadership in providing health protection and apply safety
standards beyond the laws and regulations relating to environment, health and
safety.
Our mission is
to prevent or minimize injuries and illnesses and control potential hazards
from our activities. Our intentions are
to continually consult with each of the departments for complete compliance
with laws and regulations regarding occupational health and safety and
environmental protection.
