The meeting was called to order at 2:05 p.m. by Lori Luddon in DLC-4.
1. Minutes: Minutes of November 26, 2012 approved as read.
2. Discussion and Action
3. Reports
 RASP: Fume hood inspection done today and will be scheduled yearly as part of
RASP.
 Accident/Injury report: Four claims from July through December. Falls, slips, strains
and struck by are leading claims. Focus on these categories for safety training.
Faculty and clerical are the leading groups, so those should be targeted for on-line
training. Phil Clark suggested doing a one-hour mandatory training on the overall
safety culture and claims at COS during Planning Day.
 Safe Colleges On-Line Training: Request that all employees complete I-100 and I200. Make the completion date December 31, 2013. Create a list of mandatory
trainings that have to be completed. Safety Committee members reviewed Visual
Weapons Screening to determine if it might be a good requirement for the rest of the
campus to view. The committee discussed what could be done about individuals who
refuse to complete the mandatory trainings.
 Safety Work Orders: Staff are caught up on requests.
 Campus Safety: One report of coffee vending machine in Yreka creating beverages
that are too hot. It was agreed that any issues with the vending machine are the
responsibility of the vendor, not COS. There is a problem with too much heat in the
Student Life office. Solutions were discussed.
 Facility Inspections: Building steward will be trained on the check-list this semester so
they can perform monthly checks.
 E-mails: None.
 MSDS Entry: No report.
4. Project Reports
 AED policy tabled until Blood Borne Pathogen policy is completed.
5. New Business:
 Emergency evacuation maps still need to be created and posted.
 Safe schools lock evaluations will be done in February.
