The Universal Mission of the members of EH&S and Risk Management is to minimize risk of loss, financial or otherwise through protection of University resources which include employees, students, visitors and property, thus reducing/minimizing long term liabilities to the University.
The desired outcome of delivery of our services will lay the foundation for a safe working and living environment supporting the concept of a culture of compliance.
Our goal is to assist all levels of management to meet their compliance-related responsibilities by the following:
- Communicating effectively as we provide education and training, advise, consult and promote regulatory awareness to the University community.
- Delivering quality customer service through activities such as being a source of information, conducting collaborative site surveys, and providing regulatory review and early warning of legislative changes.
- Providing immediate and effective assessment, support and oversight in response to occupational or environmental health emergencies.
- Establishing liaison relationships through cooperative interaction with Federal, State and Local regulators.
The overall effectiveness of our Mission greatly depends upon a culture of compliance, embraced by all levels of management and the University community.
