Training

There are 3 levels of training: Tier I University Tier II Department Tier III Local Work Unit Employees and students must receive training on all workplace hazards Training benefits everyone by: improving understanding, empowering people, reducing injuries and improving the bottom line.

Reporting Hazards University Policy on Anti-reprisal

“Stanford university encourages employees and students to report health and safety hazards to their supervisor, manager, or EH&S.” “Employees and students shall not be discharged or discriminated against in any manner for bona fide reporting of health and safety hazards to Stanford or to appropriate governmental agencies.” (Reports may always be made anonymously)

Reporting an Injury, Incident, or Exposure

Discuss health and safety concerns with your advisor/supervisor. Fill out and sign Stanford SU-17 form. Get forms from Risk Management. Report “near misses.” Seek medical attention for injuries.

Identification of Hazards by Inspecting the Workplace

EH&S has checklists available. Departments “self inspect.” Management ensures implementation Keep records for 1 year. Correct the hazards identified.

Correcting Hazards

Correct it as soon as possible. If you can’t correct it, ask a supervisor or manager. Are you still concerned?... call your Department Safety Representative or EH&S. Facilities can fix things and fund it if it is part of their maintenance responsibilities.

Keeping Records

When you get training, make sure it gets recorded. When you inspect for or correct hazards; document that as well. Keep Records for at least 1 year.
