Loss Prevention

Every year, Insurance & Risk Assessment works together with Facilities & Operations, Environment, Health & Safety and the ÀÖÓ¯VI's insurer complete an inspection of randomly-selected campus spaces to identify physical hazards that could result in injury to people or loss of property, including potential loss of valued research. This process is called Loss Prevention and it assists the University in identifying and assessing exposures that could adversely impact the safety of our students, staff, and visitors.

The 2019 Loss Preventions inspections took place from April 29-May 3. We want to recognize outstanding examples of safe work spaces this year. Below is the list of the gold-star spaces we saw, where space users were taking significant, positive steps to keep our campuses safe.
