OFF CAMPUS ACTIVITY SAFETY POLICY

What is the Off Campus Activity Safety Policy (“OCASP”)
  • The Queen's University Off-Campus Activity Safety Policy – OCASP – became effective on 01 September 2004.
  • OCASP applies to not only all Students, but also all Faculty and Staff, who are undertaking studies, doing research, or carrying out any other work that takes place off-campus and is under the purview of the University.
  • The University is committed to ensure that all off-campus activities are conducted in as safe and as fully aware a climate as possible, with all persons involved being fully aware of their duties and responsibilities with regard to Due Diligence.
