Health, Safety and Environment (HSE) provides services and leadership in the areas of medical surveillance and environmental monitoring, the treatment of occupational illness and injuries, fire safety, biological safety, radiation safety, chemical safety, laboratory safety, facility and equipment safety, employee safety training programs and the payment and adjudication of worker’s compensation claims. Our goal is to provide responsive service and critical support to ensure that Johns Hopkins is a safe and healthy environment in which to work, study, and live.
