The School of Surveying is committed to providing a safe and healthy place of work for staff, students and visitors.
The Health and Safety at Work Act 2015 requires a person conducting a business or undertaking to proactively identify and manage risks and hazards so everyone is safe and healthy in the workplace. In order to achieve this it is the responsibility of all School of Surveying staff members and students to report any, hazard, injury, or near miss directly to the DHSO or the Report Incident link.
