Technical visits
The Secretariat of Sustainability of the UANL, through the Directorate of Environmental Management and Operational Safety, among its various activities is to carry out technical visits to the UANL offices that are located in the different campuses located inside and outside the Metropolitan Area of Monterrey.
In the period January 2023-June 2024, 74 technical visits were carried out, of which 3 were diagnostic (1st time) and 71 were follow-up visits.
After each visit, a checklist is given to the Director as a form of feedback for the department itself, which contains the main items reviewed at the time of the visit as well as the findings.
They are then given a detailed report containing the following points:
Correct storage and handling of chemical substances
- Cleaning
- For use in laboratories
- First aid kits
- Products used in fumigation
Waste management and handling
- Hazardous (chemical and/or biological-infectious)
- Urban solids
- Special handling
Updated and current contingency plan
- Location of signs and safety pictograms according to the corresponding standard.
- Have an Internal Immediate Response Unit (UIRI) and brigades
- Carrying out drills.
- Type, quantity and location of fire extinguishers.
Location of evacuation routes, emergency exits, meeting points, among others.
These technical visits are extremely important as they are an excellent tool for identifying dangers and risks that may be present in the workplace and thus avoiding damage to the health of the university community, as well as to the environment and infrastructure, for which different prevention and/or minimization measures can be implemented.
