Office Safety

It's just an office, not a lab full of chemicals or a shop full of machinery. But nearly half of all college accidents occur in office settings. There's a lot you can do to make your workplace a safe place, especially if you supervise other people. What safety issues should every administrative employee be aware of at SRJC? The links below cover the topics and resources you should be familiar with.
