Together Keeping KAUST Safe Empowering a culture of health, safety and environmental protection Building a strong safety culture is a shared responsibility. Here’s how you can play your part during Awareness Week and after: Managers: Dedicate time with your teams to discuss safety topics and review lessons learned to help prevent future incidents. Everyone: Take this week to look at your daily environment, at work and at home. Identify and address hazards, join the events, and keep the safety conversations going.

In celebration of World Biodiversity Day, Health, Safety and Environment (HSE) is proud to host the first-ever BioBooths event. This interactive exhibition will highlight the full spectrum of biodiversity-related research, restoration, and outreach initiatives taking place across the university.

As members of the KAUST community, we all play a part in maintaining a safe and healthy environment.

Did you know that you play a vital role in Keeping KAUST Safe?

Join us for an exciting event dedicated to Keeping KAUST Safe!

We’re excited to invite the KAUST community to the annual Fire Station Open Day! This is your chance to learn about fire safety and discover how our Fire Station plays a vital role in Keeping KAUST Safe.

To foster a culture of fire safety within the KAUST community and ensure the well-being of all residents, we encourage everyone to prioritize fire awareness in their homes. KAUST values your safety and urges all residents to adopt the following simple yet crucial practices to safeguard your family, home, and neighbors from the serious consequences of fire.

To better serve our community, Health, Safety, and Environment (HSE) in collaboration with KAUST Smart, developed new emergency features now available on the KAUSTCentral app and include dissemination of emergency notifications via KAUSTCentral.

We in HSE would like to recognize KAUST’s pet friendly culture but to also recognize the health risks and unintended consequences for community animals living in and around our work spaces on campus. The practice of feeding and/or harboring these community animals at the workplace may create such unintended consequences.

We invite you to take part in the “Keeping KAUST Safe Pulse Survey 2024,” organized by the Health, Safety & Environment (HSE) department.
