Each year, EH&S initiates and tracks the completion of shop safety self-inspections, which are conducted by shop managers or their delegates. The topics covered are designed to supplement inspections conducted by EH&S in order to facilitate safety awareness and ownership within the shop.
Compliance Requirement
Self-inspections are a requirement of the campus Workplace Safety Program and Policy.
