Occupational Safety & Risk Management


Welcome! EH&S Risk Management includes the administration of insurance policies, loss prevention, property exposure management, and oversight of claims, such as FEMA disaster recovery, fleet vehicle incidents, and event review. Occupational Safety and Health programs ensure compliance with health regulations and manages various safety initiatives, including safety training, ergonomics, AED, drones, industrial hygiene, asbestos, and scientific dive safety. These programs, implemented across UF Main Campus and various UF facilities throughout Florida, aim to minimize risks, promote safety, and protect the well-being of faculty, staff, students, and visitors through comprehensive training, assessments, and adherence to regulatory standards.
