15-Passenger Vans

  • The University no longer owns or rents any 15-passenger vans. If this is incorrect, and you know of any 15-passenger vans the university owns or rents please contact safety@umd.edu.

Committees

Risk Management Committee

This coordinating committee serves to implement programs required by the State Employee Risk Management Agency, such as risk assessment surveys, and schedules training programs for the Injured Workers Insurance Fund to minimize campus employee accidents.

Traffic Accident Review Board

Mandated by the Governor's Fleet Safety Commission, this board reviews accidents involving state vehicles or drivers on University business to determine if the accident was preventable.

In addition, several campus departments have formed internal safety committees or have assigned safety coordinating duties to designated faculty or staff. DES assists these committees and safety coordinators to establish departmental programs.
