Safety and Accident Prevention

The safety of students, personnel, and visitors is of great importance. The College assumes the primary role of providing a safe environment. Students and employees should contribute to the safe atmosphere by assuming their own responsibility for safety. It is the campus’ policy that safety shall not be sacrificed for speed or shortcuts.

Every attempt shall be made to reduce the possibility of accidents; therefore, the teaching of safe practices shall be integrated into the curriculum of all programs. It is the intent of all campuses to comply with safety laws and applicable standards mandated by the State of Louisiana, applicable OSHA standards, and standards set by the equipment manufacturers.

All accidents and/or serious illnesses occurring on the campuses must be reported to the Safety Coordinator or administrative office.
