OHS Program

Programs

91±¬ÁϳÉÈËƬ is committed to providing and maintaining a safe and healthy work environment for all the University Community; to fostering an awareness of the importance of safety on our campus; and to providing the education necessary to perform activities or duties safely.

It is not sufficient, however, to merely express these safety desires in writing but, rather, at 91±¬ÁϳÉÈËƬ we take a proactive stance to ensure that workplace and individual safety is ingrained in all aspects of our daily routines. This is achieved by:

  • Physically providing and maintaining a safe and healthy work environment.
  • Fostering awareness of the importance of safety and providing the necessary education.

The manner and methods by which these are carried out are outlined in the 91±¬ÁϳÉÈËƬ OHS Program Manual:
