Safety Training
The goals of our training program are to reduce the number and severity of injuries to University employees, students, and visitors, and to reduce loss of property through a reduction in the number of accidents. Through training, the employee becomes aware of potential hazards or conditions and the actions that should be taken to prevent an accident.
Training Program
We offer training under three broad categories:
General Safety Training: Applicable to all employees and begins with the safety orientation for all new employees.
Job Specific: Tailored for employees exposed to potentially hazardous conditions as a result of their particular job.
Off-the-Job Safety: To promote safety in activities not involving employment at the University of Memphis.
