Environmental Management System
The Environment, Health, and Safety Department is in the process of developing and implementing an Environmental Management System. A key element of this system is to provide the appropriate training to all employees and students to ensure competence and awareness of our environmental policies and procedures, the significant environmental impacts of their work or activities, their roles and responsibilities in support of our environmental management system, and the potential consequences of departure from specified procedures. As objectives and targets are identified and programs established to achieve them, environmental performance will be measured by monitoring key activities and tracking performance for continual improvement.
