QUEEN'S SAFETY POLICIES (click here for full info)

Any safety concerns should be brought to the attention of the Departmental Safety Officer Alan Grant. Please consult the online Departmental Safety Manual for safety procedures and policies.

Dept safety policy

All faculty, staff and students involved in field work are required to read the Field Safety Policy. Furthermore, a set of outlining details of the field work, and the safety precautions taken, must be filed each year with the Department of Geological Sciences and Geological Engineering by each instructor in charge of field work.

Note that the University's draft safety policy for field work applies only to research, but the Department's policy applies to both research and teaching.

The Queen’s University Off-Campus Activity Safety Policy [OCASP] came into effect on 01 September 2004 The Policy applies to all Faculty, Staff, and Students undertaking Off-Campus Activities that are sanctioned by the University The Policy also applies to all unpaid Volunteers who are taking part in University-sanctioned Off-Campus Activities Non university persons who are taking part in an Activity in any paid capacity are to be treated as Faculty/Staff under The Policy
