Upon satisfactory submission/amendments as indicated by PAPRSB IHS SHE Committee, (i) send risk assessment documents along with applicable checklist (see right column) in hardcopy to the "Risk Assessment Forms (NEW APPLICATION)" in-tray located at entrance of staff office on Level 2, Admin Block, IHS Extension Building, and (ii) notify PAPRSB IHS SHE Committee by email (she.ihs@ubd.edu.bn) regarding the document shipment.

  4. After PAPRSB IHS SHE Committee verifies the risk assessment documents, you will be notified by email to collect your hardcopy from the "Safety Health and Environmental (VERIFIED)" out-tray located at entrance of staff office on Level 2, Admin Block, IHS Extension Building.
