Environmental Health & Safety (EHS)

The Oakland Community College Environmental Health and Safety (EHS) Department assists the college community; including students, faculty, staff, contractors, and visitors, in maintaining safe and healthy campuses, and to minimize our impact on the environment. Programs have been developed to provide uniform guidance to OCC employees, and to assist in meeting the many regulatory obligations that OCC is subject to. These programs deal with environmental, health, safety, transportation, and training issues that impact the college's operations.

Oakland Community College has ceased requiring notification of COVID-19 cases until further notice. If you are a confirmed or probable COVID-19 case, please follow the CDC guidelines.
