Safety Programs

The University of Missouri - Saint Louis is committed to continuous improvement toward injury-free operations. All employees have an individual responsibilty to protect themselves, their fellow employees, non-University personnel, and the student community we serve.

Our safety actions will be guided by the following principles:

  • Every employee is entitled to a safe and healthful place in which to work
  • All injuries can be prevented
  • Safety is a condition of employment
  • Each supervisor is responsible for preventing injuries to those supervised
  • Training is essential for employees to work safely and to increase their awareness
  • Exposure which may result in injury or illness must be controlled.
  • Safety audits must be conducted
  • Safety off the job is as important as safety on the job.
