Occupational Health and Safety
The aim of this web site is to allow you to see selected parts of TRU's Health and Safety Manual. The information on these pages is generic and is applicable to all areas of TRU. Safety matters/concerns that are specific to certain divisions of TRU are included in their own Safety Manual. All Safety Manuals are not identical - some are expanded to meet specific departmental requirements.
Departmental Safety Manuals are available to all Faculty and Staff. In addition Student Representatives on departmental Safety Committees have access to their departmental Manual.
If there are questions resulting from these pages please call Health and Safety (local 5805 or 5139) to ask for clarification.
The Occupational Health and Safety Department is a division of the Human Resources Department. Offices are located in the Old Main Building, accessed through the Health Clinic, OM1461.
