What Supervisors at UCR Need to Know
We are happy you are part of UCR! We want the UCR community to be safe and healthy, and Supervisors have a big opportunity to help. This page can guide you through the process of creating and maintaining a safe and healthy environment.
Your Responsibilities
Supervisors have the following responsibilities:
- Review UCR’s emergency procedures
- Be familiar with UCR policies and Environmental Health and Safety programs that address potential hazards
- Review the Guide to Health, Safety and Environmental Responsibilities for Researchers
- Train or arrange for training of staff and students on rules, regulations, and environmental health and safety procedures
- Establish a strong safety culture and follow all environmental health and safety procedures
- Ensure that proper personal protective equipment is used when needed
- Report hazardous conditions and releases to the environment
- Investigate and report all accidents/injuries and request medical treatment if required
To get started on your responsibilities, we recommend you and your employees* take the General Safety Orientation for an overview of campus safety policies, programs and resources. If you work in a lab, you and your employees* need to take the Laboratory Safety Orientation.
Please contact us with suggestions to make this page more useful for you.
* All faculty, staff, students, volunteers, and guests performing work on or for the UCR campus.
