Safety

The Physical Plant considers its employees as its most valuable asset and takes every possible practical action to make our working conditions free from hazard. Our Culture of Safety  persistently encourages and facilitates the elimination of all near miss, injury, and fatality incidents as well as implementing the appropriate corrective actions when confronted with occupational hazards associated with our activities. We are, as an institution and as individual employees, committed to continuously improving the way we complete activities keeping health and safety at the forefront of our actions both at and away from our place of employment. In addition, it is our obligation to provide a work environment that is inherently safe for all.

It’s The Way We Work.

Employees are also encouraged to engage in It’s Safe to Talk about My Safety conversations with each other. By demonstrating your willingness to be approached by others to receive safety advice or to lend safety advice helps our Culture of Safety to evolve into an employee-guided occupational safety program with its primary focus of incident prevention.
