Occupational Health
Keeping campus healthy
One program at a time
EHS works closely with departments on campus to develop and implement programs designed to identify, track and improve hazards to employee safety and health. From ergonomic assessments for offices to noise level monitoring of loud work spaces, our department provides a number of free services, training and program assistance.
Occupational Medicine Program
EHS and University Health Services (UHS) work together to protect Oklahoma State University employees from work-related injuries and illnesses through the Occupational Medicine Program. The purpose of the Occupational Medicine Program is to provide a mechanism to identify job-related illnesses, determine adequacy of protective equipment, and to establish pre-exposure status.

Ergonomics
Is applied science of equipment design for the workplace.
- Intended to maximize productivity by reducing fatigue and discomfort
- EHS offers ergonomic training for OSU employees
Indoor Air Quality and Mold
Issues can be hard to identify due to a variety of potential sources.
- Several factors can affect the indoor air quality, including volatile organic compounds and a lack of adequate air flow.
- For those who suspect poor indoor air quality, EHS can facilitate an evaluation, collect samples, and make recommendations.
Heat Stress
Symptoms should be taken seriously and monitored closely.
- The measurement of a hot environment involves more than just measuring the ambient air temperature.
- EHS recommends training on how to recognize and prevent the early signs of heat stress for employees who are at risk.
