Report a Safety Hazard

Nearly 10 million people suffer on-the-job injuries every year in the United States. Many injuries could be prevented if safety concerns were reported and corrected when initially noticed. In order to protect yourself and your coworkers, it is critical to report safety concerns as soon as they are identified. As outlined in the CCCD Injury and Illness Prevention Program, employees can communicate safety concerns to the District by: Reporting to a supervisor. Supervisors are responsible for documenting and addressing employee safety concerns. Supervisors must develop a solution for hazards and report repair needs to Maintenance, or refer the issue to the Campus Safety Committee for resolution. Reporting during meetings and training sessions. Department supervisors and the EHS office conduct regular safety training sessions on various topics. These sessions provide a good forum for communicating employee safety concerns. A representative of EHS will be present at campus safety committee meetings. Reporting to a campus safety committee member. All safety issues brought to the attention of a safety committee member will be discussed at the next committee meeting except in emergency situations where immediate attention is required. Committee members are responsible for communicating safety concerns to the committee for discussion and resolution. Below is a list of current safety committee members.
