ISEM Core Principles
ISEM relies on weaving these core principles into the way we do business at UCR:
Management responsibility
All employees are responsible for integrating safety, health, and environmental standards into their work and for ensuring active communication up and down the management line and with others.
Clear roles and responsibilities
Establish and communicate roles and responsibilities to ensure safety, health, and environmental standards are considered in all aspects of campus activities.
Competence commensurate with responsibilities
Ensure every individual has the knowledge, skills, experience, and abilities to carry out their responsibilities.
Balanced priorities
Make protecting people and the environment a priority whenever university activities are planned and performed.
Identification of safety standards and requirements
Evaluate associated hazards before an activity is performed. Communicate appropriate standards and requirements to everyone involved or impacted by the activity.
Hazard controls tailored to work performed
Implement administrative and engineering controls to prevent and mitigate hazards specific to the work being performed and associated hazards
Operations authorized
Clearly establish and agree upon the conditions and requirements to be satisfied for any activity to be initiated and conducted at UCR.
