SUBJECT: Ensuring Workplace Safety
In this time of increased societal concern over workplace safety, we want to reassure you that UCSD is committed to maintaining a safe environment for all faculty, staff and students. In keeping with this commitment, you should be aware that any reported threats of physical violence will be taken seriously and
investigated. Such threats are considered serious misconduct and may be the basis for disciplinary action. When there is reason to be concerned that the health, safety or well-being of members of the University community are endangered, a licensed mental health practitioner may be called upon to evaluate
the individual making the threat.
If you or someone you know receives a threat of physical violence from someone inside or outside the UCSD community, you should report it immediately to one of
the following offices:
CAMPUS Faculty/Staff:
Faculty and Staff Assistance Program, ext. 45523
Students:
Director of Student Policy and Judicial Affairs, ext. 46225
In case of an emergency, dial 911 for Campus Police
MEDICAL CENTER HILLCREST/THORNTON
Faculty/Staff:
UCSDMC Security, ext. 93762
Thornton employees may also dial 911 for Campus Police in case of an emergency
Violence, whether actual or threatened, undermines our ability to work and learn. Please assist in ensuring that our campus is a safe environment for all members of the University community.
