Occupational & Environmental Health & Safety

Hemet Unified School District (HUSD) is committed to providing a safe and healthful workplace for all of its employees. The personal safety of each school district employee while in performance of his or her work activity is of primary importance.

The HUSD Safety/Risk Management Office implements and monitors government-mandated environmental and occupational health and safety compliance programs and coordinates safety training sessions to ensure that employees are conscious of the hazards in their workplace and knowledgeable of the skills and techniques needed to avoid those hazards.

When an employee is injured in the workplace, the Safety/Risk Management Office coordinates Workers’ Compensation claims and processes and works with sites to assign alternative work arrangements for the employee if a modified work assignment is ordered by their doctor.

If an employee is injured while at work, they should contact their Office Manager or Supervisor for the necessary forms and procedures to initiate a Workers’ Compensation claim.
