Safety
Head of Department's Commitment
to EHS
The Department of Civil & Environmental Engineering is committed to meeting the provisions and requirements of the Occupational Health and Safety Act 2004 and thereby to ensure the health and safety of our staff, students and visitors to our facilities. The management of the Department will take all measures necessary to ensure adherence to safe work practices and conditions and these will be given priority in the Department’s planning, procedures and work instructions.
The
creation and maintenance of a safe and healthy working environment
is an integral part of our operation and we actively pursue
the goals of this policy. The University has adopted the Victorian
WorkCover Authority's SafetyMAP to ensure that these goals are
achieved and the Department of Civil & Environmental
Engineering is committed to maintaining its accreditation under
this Program.
It is expected that, through consultation and co-operation,
all staff, contractors and visitors will observe rules and safe
working practices and make every effort to reduce the risk of
injury to themselves, their fellow workers and others.
The management
of the Department of Civil & Environmental
Engineering is committed to the provision of appropriate resources
and training in order to assist all staff to fulfil their responsibilities
and maintain a safe working environment.
