ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH & SAFETY

At Villanova University, the Environmental Health and Safety team aims to provide a healthy environment throughout campus, comply with all regulatory requirements, promote a culture of safety and ensure that all faculty, staff and students have a safe and rewarding Villanova experience. 

All Villanova University employees share responsibility for their personal safety, the safety of others, and compliance with University policy and federal, state and local regulations. All faculty, staff and students are expected to comply with EHS procedures, stay informed concerning EHS standards and risks applicable to their work, and report unsafe acts or conditions and adverse events to their supervisor.

We are committed to creating and maintaining a safe and healthy environment for all faculty, students, staff and guests. We work to protect the environment and our community, minimize hazardous material use and prevent pollution.

EHS works closely with Facilities Management to maintain a safe and healthy campus. For facilities concerns, please place a work order.

As part of our shared commitment to ensuring a safe and healthy campus, EHS offers trainings on a variety of topics. These trainings can be scheduled with your department or small groups on an as needed basis or on a schedule depending on area requirements. We also created "Toolbox Talks" which are quick and easy trainings to enhance Villanova's safety requirements.
