MIT's Environment, Health, and Safety Office (EHS Office) is responsible
for overseeing operational EHS management at MIT; providing EHS
services to departments, laboratories and centers (DLCs); supporting
MIT's commitment to EHS performance beyond compliance; and delivering
services that demonstrate MIT's commitment to EHS stewardship. These
services relate to a wide range of areas - from environmental sustainability
and occupational safety to chemical, radiation, and biological controls
- that support the Institute's accountability for excellent EHS
performance, as well as for legal compliance.
The work of the office include the deployment of resources that
reduce the environmental impact of MIT's work, operations, and facilities,
and ensure the health and safety of our community members and neighbors.
All of these activities are informed by our commitment to provide
the responsive service and critical support needed to make MIT a
safe, healthy, and environmentally responsible place to live, work,
and study.
