In order to ensure the continued well-being of our personnel, Environmental Health
and Safety (EH&S) has contracted with a licensed healthcare provider to offer occupational
health (OH) services. These services are primarily preventative in scope and can include
procedures such as screenings and surveillance; vaccinations; clearance for respirator
use; respirator fit testing; and monitoring personnel with occupational exposure to
animal allergens, biological agents, hazardous chemicals, ionizing radiation, Class
3B and 4 lasers, and noise. More information on legal requirements for providing
occupational health services is available from the Occupational Safety and Health Administration and University Operating Procedure UM1293.
Additional information on how to obtain occupational health services is provided in
the Occupational Health Services Information Sheet. Please submit the Occupational Health Services Notification Form prior to utilizing such services. Upon receiving the form, EH&S will acknowledge
receipt and provide information needed for scheduling appointment(s) with the healthcare
provider.
