Our Purpose: Appalachian State University strives to provide a safe and
healthful environment, free from recognized hazards which may cause serious
injury to students, employees, and visitors. This is accomplished by maintaining
a comprehensive safety and health program which involves all university employees.
In carrying out its responsibility to provide a safe and healthy environment,
the University has established the Safety & Workers' Compensation Office.
This office serves as a resource for every person at the University. The
Safety & Workers'
Compensation Office develops policies and procedures to accomplish the goal
of a safe and healthful environment.
Appalachian State University believes that its most valuable resource is
the people who teach, learn and work at this institution, and will do all
that is reasonable and necessary to protect them.

As a part of this mission department staff provide assistance to departments and individuals in order to establish and maintain a safe and healthy campus environment. Safety and health will be promoted as a matter of foreth:ought rather than afterthougt. The office is under the direction of the Vice Chancellor for Business Affairs.
