CPIT has developed a number of health and safety procedures to ensure that we provide a safe environment for our staff, students and visitors. As well as being good business practice, some are related to compliance and life safety and must be followed in an emergency event.

When you first arrive or are working in a new area of the Polytechnic please familiarise yourself with our procedures and follow them when necessary.

Remaining current with these procedures improves confidence and ensures a consistent and well managed response.

Should any of the following require further clarification, please contact the Health and Safety Coordinator in your Faculty or Division for further information.
