EHS is supporting a NEW Safety Recognition Award as part of the Human
Resources and Payroll Recognition Program. This award is given to a person
or group of employees (department, facilities shop, laboratory, etc.) to
recognize those who have made a significant contribution to improving health
and safety on campus. Any employee or group of employees may be nominated
by a colleague, supervisor, customer or student. The management staff
within the Environmental Health and Safety Office will serve as the awarding
committee. Nominations will be accepted twice a year prior to each Human
Resources Awards Ceremony and the monetary award will be divided between
multiple awardees.
The committee will be looking for a description of how the nominee(s) has
made a significant contribution to improving health and safety on campus.
Significant contributions may be defined as actions taken to prevent an
injury or illness from occurring, outstanding response and cooperation given
to resolve unsafe conditions, consistent and proactive demonstration of
efforts in support of health and safety considerations, or other work that
promotes health and safety on campus.
Nominations for the Spring Human Resources Awards Ceremony should be
submitted on the Safety Recognition Award Form and
must be submitted to safety@gmu.edu no later than January 31, 2008.
