Environmental Health and Occupational Safety
The Environmental Health and Occupational Safety (EHS) Office works to promote a healthy and safe work environment for all members of the College community. Our safety programs offer guidance on a variety of health and safety issues including classroom and office safety, chemical hygiene and hazard communication, safety for facilities operations and maintenance activities, and other specific hazards.
In addition, we administer and interpret federal and state environmental and occupational regulations for the College. Our additional resources links have information on OSHA, MOSH, EPA, and MDE requirements for each safety program. Other services we offer include safety training, provision of Safety Data Sheets (SDS) for hazardous materials, hazardous waste disposal, safety complaint investigations, and responding to environmental emergencies on our campuses.
