Supervisors and Managers

Supervisors

An important part of any successful safety program is the individual workplace SUPERVISOR, be it the faculty member in the classroom, laboratory, or shop; the maintenance foreman on the job; or the administrative department head in an office.  Supervisors must support safety and health as models to those they supervise or instruct.  

The SUPERVISOR is responsible for providing safe working conditions, knowing environmental health and safety guidelines, investigating accidents, reporting accidents and unsafe conditions, following up/correcting unsafe working conditions, enforcing EHS standards, and supplying appropriate equipment and training. 
The EHS office has developed numerous resources designed to empower SUPERVISORS with the tools, guidelines and training needed to ensure a safe workplace.
