Health and Safety

Our primary objective is to maintain and ensure a safe and healthy work environment at Algoma U.

Algoma University is committed to maintaining a safe and healthy environment for all staff, faculty and administration and to protecting all members from injury or occupational illness. It is the intention of Algoma University to comply with all legislation in this regard and to make every effort to provide a safe, healthy work environment within those legislated guidelines. It is the responsibility of the university community, regardless of position or status on campus, to commit to reducing the risk of injury or hazards and to the promotion of personal security and well-being. Prevention begins with you – communicate about hazards; report injuries, incidents, property damage, or hazardous situations. For more information, please view our Health and Safety Policy (PDF).

The Internal Responsibility System (IRS) gives everyone within the University direct responsibility for health and safety as an essential part of his or her job. No matter who or where the person is in the University, all are to achieve health and safety in a way that suits the kind of work they do. Each person takes initiative on health and safety issues and works to solve problems and make improvements on an ongoing basis. They do this both singly and cooperatively with others. Successful implementation of the IRS should result in progressively longer intervals between accidents or work-related illnesses.

The University supports the Internal Responsibility System (IRS) by giving all employees the right to participate as members of the Joint Health and Safety Committee (JHSC).
For more information, please view our Joint Health and Safety Committee Terms of Reference (PDF).

JHSC Minutes are posted on the Health & Safety Boards and can be found on the Public Drive.
