Contractor Safety Guidebook

The University at Buffalo (UB) recognizes that many hazards are inherent in construction and other contract work. Compliance with safety regulations can prevent virtually all serious injuries. This Guidebook serves as notification of campus safety requirements to contractors, including subcontractors, who perform work at UB and any other facilities operated by the University. Contractors should not assume that this guide covers all applicable safety and health laws as it does not. Instead, it provides contractors with site-specific safety, health and environmental rules and policies which the University expects will be followed on all University property. The rules, regulations and guidance contained herein represent program areas that have been problematic in the past or require special care and consideration due to the nature of the working environment at the University.
