Environmental Health and Safety
“Out of this nettle, danger, we pluck this flower, safety.” Henry IV Part 1
The Environmental Health and Safety (EHS) Department supports the mission of PCC by promoting health, safety and environmental protection throughout the District with the objective of maintaining a safe learning and working environment. EHS provides leadership in developing and supporting policies, procedures, programs and training opportunities in support of the protection of life, property, and the environment. Programs include disciplines such as: environmental management (soil, water), hazardous material and waste, environmental health, chemical hygiene, radiation safety, biohazard, construction and occupational health and safety.
What’s New in EH&S
EH&S recently presented training on PCC’s stormwater management practices and the various regulation and permit requirements the college must meet for compliance. If you missed the session or would like to review the content, complete the online training available in MyCareer@PCC.
Is your team up to date on training? There are several safety topics that require annual training. Managers can review the Health & Safety Manual Chapter 1 training charts for Academic and Operational departments to confirm which training topics their employees should complete before the end of the year.
