All
university
owned,
rented, or leased buildings are required to be inspected at least
quarterly. Building
safety
coordinators
are responsible for ensuring that inspections are conducted in their
assigned
buildings.
Problems
&
issues
identified during the inspections should be corrected by the personnel
performing the inspection if possible. We understand that many
issues
require professional assistance to be corrected but many simple issues
can be corrected by yourself and other occupants in your building.
The EH&S
department
has developed a standard building inspection form to be used when
conducting
the inspections:
When
performing the
inspection try to check with the various occupants of the
building.
These occupants may have noticed safety hazards that you have not
noticed.
For issues
that
pose
an imminent threat to building occupants please report these directly
to
the Environmental Health & Safety Officer by telephone at 342-5177.
Once the
inspection
is complete please review the form for accuracy. Make sure that
you
have signed the form. Make a copy of the form for your records
and
send a copy of the form to the Environmental Health & Safety
Office.
Due dates
for
submitting
the completed building inspection forms are as follows, unless
otherwise
