Environment, Health, and Safety Onboarding at Virginia Tech

A shared partnership exists among University leadership, faculty, researchers, laboratory staff, students, and Environmental Health and Safety to support a strong culture of safety; a culture in which all individuals responsibly embrace safety as a core value for long-term health and safety. As a principal investigator, supervisor, or researcher you are responsible for the safety yourself and your colleagues. This presentation includes a review of Environmental Health and Safety's onboarding recommendations for responsible administration and implementation of the University’s research and training requirements, safety programs, policies, and procedures.
