As part of Carleton University’s legislative requirement to inform workers of specific health and safety information in the workplace, the Environmental Health and Safety Office has established the Health and Safety Board Program.
The program consists of standardized Health and Safety Boards dedicated to the posting of health and safety information. As part of this program periodic reviews are made by Environmental Health and Safety to ensure required information is present and current.
Please notify the Office of Environmental Health and Safety of any boards that have been damaged, inappropriately used or are missing information.
