It is the Auglaize County Educational Service Center's policy to conduct all of its operations and activities in a manner that ensures a healthy and safe work environment for all employees. The prevention of occupational injuries and illnesses is of top priority.

All employees, certified and classified, must be dedicated to reducing the risk of injury and illness for our safety policy to succeed.

We will hold supervisors accountable for the health and safety of employees under their supervision. We will provide supervisors with the training, assistance and support needed for them to fulfill this responsibility. Supervisors also are responsible to ensure equipment is safe and that employees follow established safe work practices and procedures.

Employees must protect their own health and safety and that of others by following safety rules and by using safe work practices and procedures.

We are committed to returning injured workers to productive work as soon as possible by providing providing a transitional work program.

It is in the best interest of all of us to consider health and safety in every activity. All employees must demonstrate a commitment to health and safety.
