Executive Safety Committee       

Executive Safety Overview:

The Executive Safety Advisory Committee has three primary responsibilities: 1) Develop and communicate a clear vision for our safety program to Research, Extension, and College of Agriculture employees and students throughout the state.  2) Establish broad safety goals for our statewide organization.  3) Evaluate our organization’s progress toward meeting those goals.  The committee members are selected to represent the interests of administration, faculty, staff and students.
