A brief description of when and why the workplace health and safety baseline was adopted (e.g. in sustainability plans and policies or in the context of other reporting obligations):
Most of the Office of Campus Sustainability's baselines use the year 2010, however, that year was unavailable for data on health and safety, so the next year with complete data was selected, which turned out to be 2011.

All employees must undergo occupational health and safety training which includes a total of 4 hours of online or classroom training on:
- worker and health and safety awareness (familiarizes new workers with their organization, supervisors, co-workers, work areas and responsibilities, and with health and safety-related items in general);
- violence prevention (workplace violence policies and programs and must information and instruction to workers on preventing violence and refusing work);

- accessibility standards for customer service (accessibility standards for client services);

Supervisors may request additional training for their staff that is job-specific. In addition to these mandatory training sessions, employees are engaged in health and safety programs through regular audits of offices and interactions with the ORM staff.
