Safety begins in the workplace: in the labs, shops, classrooms, offices, and residence halls where we work and live. It is the responsibility of very employee and student at TCU to use commone sense and look out for their safety and the safety of others.  The University's health and safety programs are designed to minimize risks through sound, common sense practices.
