Workplace Safety
Cal Maritime is committed to providing a safe and healthy environment for students,
faculty, staff and visitors. This goal is required by a framework of law and regulation,
and moreover, by ethical and leadership values that are consistent with the University
mission. Executive Order 1039, California State University Occupational Health and
Safety Policy, recognizes Environmental Health and Safety (EH&S) as an integral function
of the California State University. Pursuant to the Executive Order the campus president
designates a campus EH&S program administrator with authority to develop and maintain
campus health and safety programs. These programs are designed to mitigate risk of
injury or illness that may arise from work related activities. The programs assign
responsibility to various campus entities who collectively implement procedures and
practices to identify and correct hazards, and provide appropriate communication and
training in conformance with the Cal-OSHA Injury and Illness Prevention Program (CCR,
Title 8, section 3203) and other applicable State and Federal requirements.
