Welcome to the Department of Environmental Health & Safety Web Site
The mission of the Department of Environmental Health & Safety (EHS) is to
coordinate a comprehensive and continuing accident prevention and health
maintenance effort compatible with the functions of the University. The program
is designed to create a healthful and safe atmosphere for study, research,
service and employment, and to promote good health and safety practices by the
student body, faculty, staff and visitors. The program is intended as a guide in
planning, organizing and controlling related programs in each college and
administrative unit. The objective of the program is the protection of life and
property by prevention of accidents and environmental related
diseases.
EHS is a component of Human Resources (HR). Dr. Alan Chesney serves as the
Executive Director of HR.
