Construction Safety Program

The Construction Safety Program is designed to minimize risks and protect the UTSA community as the university continues to grow. This is achieved through safety training, construction site inspections and environmental monitoring.

Construction Site Inspections

To ensure contractors are following safety standards and industry best practices, our team regularly conducts inspections of the working conditions at on-campus construction sites. We assess these sites to ensure that appropriate equipment and procedures are in use to protect those at the worksite as well surrounding areas.
