Our mission is to ensure that
LSUHSC-NO students, faculty, staff, and visitors have a safe
workplace by providing them with the service and knowledge
necessary for their protection. In addition, we are
committed to protecting the local community and environment
from any potential hazards generated by university
activities by ensuring that our students, faculty, staff,
and visitors are informed and knowledgeable.
To assure
compliance with all occupational and environmental rules and
regulations , our office maintains a good working relationship
with a multitude of agencies and groups that regulate or control
biomedical research. Through partnerships with LSUHSC-NO
researchers, faculty and staff, EH&S
fosters working relationships which allow us to keep the
University community aware of requirements and to provide an
audit trail of activities which demonstrates compliance to the
regulators.
