1 California State University, Fullerton CSHEMA Innovation Award Application 2017 Resource Enhancement: Reduced Costs and Student Success Preparing Students for Environmental Health and Safety Careers While Saving Money California State University, Fullerton (CSUF) has found an innovative way to prepare college students for careers in the environmental health and safety (EHS) field while also saving the University a great deal of money. What began as a means to address a tough budget situation in 2009, has evolved into helping EHS students obtain career skills and jobs when they graduate. The practice of collecting hazardous waste chemicals from instructional and research labs and storing them safely on campus until a third party company properly packs them for disposal occurs at universities across the United States. To address a tough budget situation in 2009, two CSUF EHS staff members decided to consolidate the liquid wastes themselves instead of having a third party vendor lab pack the chemicals. The lab packing usually allows only up to 25 gallons of waste in a 55 gallon drum, whereas by consolidating the chemicals, EHS staff could fill a 55 gallon drum. The consolidation activity resulted in reducing the number of drums sent off for disposal in 2009 from 560 to 140 a year which amounted to $90,000 savings. In addition, the consolidation of the chemicals on a routine basis within the 90 day Environmental Protection Agency window, enhanced the safety surrounding the chemical storage since the numbers of containers stored were significantly less. As CSUF continued to grow, it became apparent that EHS needed to add more staff. While still trying to address tight budgets, the EHS team decided to add student employees to assist with the waste chemical consolidation and other chemical safety responsibilities which are listed in Exhibit A. The EHS student safety 1
2 team has grown over the past years to 4. Each student works a maximum of 20 hours during the school term. More important than salary savings to CSUF is the promotion of student success. Of the students who have graduated, Table 1 represents the jobs they have obtained due to their experience at CSUF s EHS Department. Other universities are now expressing interest in implementing a similar model for student employment at their EHS Department where they previously believed students could only assist with administrative duties. Understanding the importance of safety when conducting chemical consolidations, CSUF has extensive training requirements for the students which include a 40 hour Hazardous Waste Operations course, Respiratory Protection Program which includes medical monitoring, and annual refresher training. In addition to comprehensive training, the students receive the necessary supervision to ensure their safety. A few of the students have been with CSUF EHS 3-4 years, but a minimum of a 2 year commitment is required. The training they receive also makes them more marketable to employers.
