To provide a safe and healthy work environment for students, employees and visitors, the School has established a workplace safety program. This program is a top priority for the School. The Principal and/or Facility Manager has the responsibility for implementing, administering, monitoring, and evaluating the safety program; however, its success depends on the alertness and personal commitment of all. Supervisors at all levels have the responsibility of ensuring a safe workplace.


The School provides information to employees about workplace safety and health issues through regular internal communication channels such as supervisor-employee meetings, bulletin board posting, memos, or other written communications.


Employees and supervisors shall receive periodic workplace safety training. The training shall cover potential safety and health hazards and safe work practices and procedures to eliminate or minimize hazards.


Some of the best safety improvement ideas come from employees. Those with ideas, concerns, or suggestions for improved safety in the workplace are encouraged to raise them with their supervisor or with another supervisor or the Principal and/or Facility Manager.


Each employee is expected to obey safety rules and to exercise caution in all work activities. Employees must immediately report in writing (or may use a Work Order) any unsafe condition to the Principal and/or Facility Manager. Employees who violate safety standards, who cause hazardous or dangerous situations, or who fail to report or, where appropriate, remedy such situations, may be subject to disciplinary action, up to and including termination of employment.


In the case of accidents that result in injury, regardless of how insignificant the injury may appear, employees should immediately (within twenty-four (24) hours of the injury) notify the immediate supervisor.
