Keene State College has entered a new partnership with the New Hampshire Occupational Safety and Health Administration’s consulting service, which provides free consultations to NH businesses to ensure they are operating a safe and productive work environment. The NH Department of Labor requires all employers in the state with 10 or more employees to have a written safety and health program, so students and faculty from KSC’s Safety Studies and Occupational Health program will offer their expertise to help employers develop a proactive plan. The College will receive more than $400,000 in federal funds to support the program.
Since 1994, Keene State has directed an OSHA Training Institute Education Center in Manchester.
