SAFETY FIRST
Commenced last Fall, all classes/sessions at GAU will begin with a safety moment. We have updated our safety policy (see
Ujuzi dashboard) to ensure all stakeholders at GAU are aware of the procedures in place to ensure their safety at the
University.
Students:
Are responsible for their personal health and safety
1. Must comply with any and all reasonable directions (such as safe study/work procedures, wearing personal
protective equipment) supplied by the university for health and safety with the intent of avoiding injury to self and
others
2. Must wear personal protective equipment and clothing where and when it is necessary
3. Must not misuse or interfere with anything that is provided for health and safety
4. Must report all accidents and incidents on the job immediately, to the Resources Officer no matter if they appear
trivial. The safety rule is no one will be penalized for violating safety rules, so feel free to make a report by filling
out a note to the OSH Committee.
5. Must report all known or observed hazards to your instructor or member of the Occupation Safety and Health
Committee
6. Must always be prepared to share a safety moment with your class or within any gathering at the University. Don't
hesitate to interrupt any session to share a safety movement if the instructor of that session fails to start with a safety
moment.
Please take a few minutes to read through the University's OSH Policy that will be emailed to you during the first week of
the school term and is also made available to students through the various student groups and social media platforms.
