Executive Board

EB is the supreme Governing Body of the University. It has ultimate responsibility for overseeing health and safety matters at the University and for ensuring that good governance is practiced. It approves the safety strategy.

EB will monitor the delivery of the strategy and provide leadership and direction for health and safety strategic issues, in particular championing health and safety issues and ensuring these matters are effectively integrated into the management of the University.

Executive Board’s key tasks are to:

• Set the Strategy (following guidance from the University Safety Committee, USC).
• Ensure that health and safety matters are fully integrated into the University management systems.
• Approve major health and safety policy statements on behalf of the president.
• Ensure suitable and sufficient resources are allocated at a university level to provide health and safety services.
• Publicly report on progress to the president on a regular basis.

To undertake these roles the EB member responsible for Safety will take the lead in developing reports and monitoring progress. The EB member for Safety will therefore also represent Executive Board on the University Safety Committee (USC).
