Don Cross was appointed Health and Safety Advisor to the University with effect from 12th January 2004. Don is from a Marine Engineering background having served in the Royal Navy (Submarine Service) for 25 years. During this time, he sub-specialised in submarine safety including exit and re-entry techniques. Since leaving the Royal Navy in 1989, he has been responsible for engineering and maintenance at Port Ramsgate and at the Q.E.Q.M Hospital, Margate and most recently for the private BMI Hospital group where his role was that of Chief Engineer and Health and Safety Officer. Health and Safety has taken on a new dimension in recent years with the emphasis being focussed on self regulation and to this end, Don has undertaken a wide ranging review of all Health and Safety documentation including the University Health and Safety Policy document and individual policies and procedures. The most recent significant challenge for the Health and Safety Department was the input into the Augustine House project. Future challenges include the St Georges Place accommodation project whilst maintaining the all important day to day health and safety requirements of the University. Don can be contacted on extension 2447 and on health.safety@canterbury.ac.uk |
