Field research safety plan
Does your research involve field work or trips for you or any participants?
Our online tool will help you plan and document your training, communicate your requirements and expectations, and present emergency information to your staff, students and volunteers.
Creating and distributing your plan will minimize the liabilities associated with your project and alert your team to potential hazards.
Plan Distribution
We suggest posting your plan on WebCampus so you can track your participants' training through required reading.
You can request a review of your plan by contacting EH&S.

- Hazards involved in the project
