EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Trends In 2017, Environmental Health & safety (EHS) / Hazardous Waste Management (HWM) underwent an

internal audit and high and moderate risk issues were identified for: Hazardous Waste Facility, Protocol for

Controlled Substances, Application & Software Management – MyLab, Budget Management, and Key

Processes & Procedures. These and the moderate/high risk issues have already been addressed and are

part of an action plan (pp 28). This year, EHS actively contributed to the development of a new Laboratory

Design standard for McGill. This standard was developed in conjunction with the Design Group of FMAS in

order to incorporate sustainability and health and safety considerations into the design process for new

laboratories. As well, EHS developed a new risk-based assessment tool to assist in retrofitting older

laboratories with their needs for emergency eye wash and shower units.

In 2017-2018, EHS reported 706 service calls, on par with the average over the past several years (pp 14).

There was a notable increase in calls for Ergonomic Assessments (45% increase over 2016-2017), and

Indoor Air Quality (39% increase over 2016-2017). Ergonomic interventions increased substantially

because the Occupational Health Administrator was given training in office ergonomics assessments and

EHS ramped up publicity for this service. The increase in the number of indoor air quality investigations

was due to two principal trends: a higher number of requests for mold evaluations whenever water

infiltration is involved and more complaints around dust and odours caused by construction projects.

Security Services – Downtown: While the overall volume of reported incidents is similar to 2016-2017, there

was a 21% increase in requests for assistance, particularly for agents and adapted transports (pp 20).

Requests for agents increased 22% due to the amount of construction on campus while an improved

process for Adapted Transport Service resulted in an increase in volume of 30%. Overall, there was a

weekly average increase of 10% in calls, requests and services.

Security Services – Macdonald Campus: The total number of weekly calls received by the Macdonald

Campus Security Operations Centre (SOC) increased from an average of 45 a week in 2016-2017 to an

average of 72 a week in 2017-2018, a weekly increase of 60% (pp 21). Notably, the increases occurred

primarily in the following categories: “Emergency Calls” (23.5%), “Provide Assistance” (32.9%) and

“Miscellaneous” (90%). For Emergency Calls, there was an increase in medical emergencies and requests

for mental health assistance. In Provide Assistance, the calls were mostly related to construction and

requests for access to areas on campus. Finally, in the category of Miscellaneous, most of the incidents

resulted from an improved process in enforcing parking infractions and a campus that is overcapacity for

parking.

Fire Prevention: Shorter equipment inspection cycles – the number of months required to inspect all fire

safety equipment has helped decrease the number of unfounded alarms on campus. For the period from

May 2017 to April 2018, the number of unfounded alarms was 72— which is 20% below average (pp 17).

Capacity Building

EHS introduced WHMIS 2015 for lab personnel, in line with the new globally harmonized system

adopted by the Canadian government (pp 28).

Security Services introduced new training for uniformed personnel, including: mental health first

aid, response to disclosures of sexual violence or harassment; and training on naloxone

administration for opioid overdoses. Patrollers and certain other agents now carry EpiPen Auto-

Injectors to manage allergic reactions (pp 29).

McGill University 2017-2018 Safety Annual Report Page 5 of 41

Emergency Management & Preparedness (EMP) organized an ammonia leak drill at the

Macdonald campus arena (pp 30). The drill was the second of a two-part exercise program to

enhance ammonia risk awareness and response capabilities at Macdonald campus. Additionally,

EMP brought together over 40 responders from the Incident Command, Emergency Operations

Center, and Emergency Communications groups for a flood tabletop exercise. This was the first

time all three groups practiced simultaneously outside of a full-scale exercise.

Campus Public Safety played a vital role in the installation and operation of bollards at three access

points, safely restricting campus access of vehicles to community members and visitors only, as

well as protecting the community from possible attacks.

Moving Forward (2018-2019)

EHS will launch the myLab Laboratory Information Cards (LICs) to display safety and emergency

information on lab doors (pp 31).

With funding from the Sustainability Project Fund (SPF) and Facilities Management (FMAS),

Hazardous Waste Management will install a biomedical waste sterilization system. The installation

will enable the University to avoid sending non-anatomical biohazardous waste to the United States

for disposal. This will translate into an estimated reduction of 34% of greenhouse gas emissions

associated with the disposal of this waste (pp 31).

Emergency Management & Preparedness is planning a full-scale emergency exercise with external

responders groups. The exercise will test all levels of McGill’s emergency response structure (pp

32).

The Fire Prevention Office will implement a prevention program focused on vulnerable populations,

including persons with disabilities, infant populations, and occupants of high-capacity buildings (pp

31).

Funds have been allocated to the Fire Equipment Upgrades Program, ensuring an accelerated roll-

out to replace outdated fire alarm systems and alarm transmitter boxes on the downtown and

Macdonald campuses as well as in Residences (pp 32).

Security Services will be purchasing software designed to control Medeco-type keys and to provide

an up-to-date database that will distinguish the specific keys required to open specific doors (pp

33).

Macdonald campus: As of May 30, 2019, McGill Security Services will no longer be providing John

Abbott College security and parking services (pp 33).

Key Needs

For EHS the outstanding items remaining to be addressed relate mostly to IT support, including the

need for a new call ticket system, an incident tracking system to enable statistical analysis, and a

course registration and training management system.

Incident Management System (IMS) for Campus Public Safety.

The significant and continuous increase of projects on the downtown campus has and continues to

impact the already strained human resources in all of the Campus Public Safety units (Parking &

Transportation, Fire Prevention, Emergency Management & Preparedness, and Security Services).

A request from the Director-Campus Public Safety is forthcoming, pertaining to the hiring of the

required, additional human resources to adhere to the increase in services to be provided to the

community in order to ensure a safe environment for all and to ensure and contribute to the

wellbeing of the Campus Public Safety staff members.

1 INTRODUCTION

This report summarizes the events and activities related to issues of health and safety at McGill University for the period of May 1st, 2017 to April 30th, 2018. The scope of this report includes all aspects of safety, reflecting the mandate of the safety units under Campus Public Safety (Emergency Management & Preparedness, Security Services and Fire Prevention) as well as Environmental Health and Safety (Environmental Health & Safety and Hazardous Waste Management). The Director of Campus Public Safety also oversees Parking and Transportation Services, which manages all parking activities. The unit provides guidance and support to the community on logistical issues related to parking and transportation on the campus grounds. Due to their limited involvement in safety, this report will not include the Parking & Transportation Services department.

1.1 Administration

Through sharing of resources, information, and expertise, the three safety branches of Campus Public Safety as well as the Parking and Transportation Services department collaborate with other units, including Environmental Health and Safety, to provide services to the McGill community. The organizational structure and current staffing levels are shown in Appendices 1 and 2.

1.1.1 Mission Statement – Campus Public Safety

McGill University's Campus Public Safety Department works with the community to promote a safe and secure environment for students, faculty, staff and visitors through education, prevention and response.

The members of the Campus Public Safety Department: Security Services, Fire Prevention, Parking and Transportation Services, and Emergency Management and Preparedness, are committed to respecting the needs and interests of the university community, and to being diligent in the protection of both persons and property.

As such, we encourage our partners in the community to assume their individual and collective responsibilities to make McGill University a place that is safe, and to provide an open environment that fosters learning and education.

1.1.2 Mission Statement – Environmental Health & Safety

Environmental Health and Safety supports the continuous improvement of a safety culture at the University by providing advice, guidance, training, and technical support to the McGill community. The safety culture encompasses a healthy and safe environment achieved through everyone’s understanding of their related responsibilities and compliance with all regulatory requirements and University safety policies.

This year, new laws and regulations were added to the regulatory framework for safety within which the University operates, and to Figure 1 accordingly. Namely, they are the Health of Animals Act and Regulations and the Plant Protection Act and Regulation. The Hazardous Products Act and Regulation was also added to Figure 1. This addition reflects the fact that in 2017-2018, EHS has been impacted by changes to the Workplace Hazardous Materials Information System 2015 (WHMIS2015) arising from the new globally harmonized system adopted by the Canadian government.

2.1 Safety Committee Management System

As shown in Figure 2, there are a number of safety committees at McGill. This structure includes committees with representation from across the University as well as committees within academic, administrative and service units. 2.1.1 University Health and Safety Committee (UHSC)

The University Health and Safety Committee is the umbrella safety committee, responsible for university-wide health and safety issues. The Committee is chaired by Robert Couvrette, Associate Vice-Principal, Facilities Management & Ancillary Services. The committee met six times in 2017-2018. This committee is comprised of all of the McGill staff and student unions and associations, balanced with a nearly equal number of management representatives. Topics addressed throughout the year included:

McGill Smoking Policy

Regulatory Agency Interventions

EHS Lab Inspection Non-Responses

Burnside Garage Trades Shop

Epi-Pens

New Software Requirements for EHS Training and Incident Tracking

2.1.2 University Laboratory Safety Committee (ULSC)

The University Laboratory Safety Committee (ULSC) provides a forum where laboratory safety issues can be addressed and where policies and protocols can be developed in a consistent and effective manner. The committee structure continued to work well; each faculty presented a summary of their activities of the year and shared ideas for improving safety culture that are working well. The biosafety and radiation safety officers also presented their annual reports. One notable change is the Sustainable Labs Working Group became a sub-committee of ULSC and now provides updates at every meeting.

McGill University 2017-2018 Safety Annual Report Page 9 of 41

The ULSC reports to the Office of the Vice-Principal, Research & Innovation. The Vice-Principal renewed the appointment of Professor Alvin Shrier as Chair. The committee met seven times in 2017-2018. Topics addressed throughout the year included:

Sustainable Labs Working Group

Policy for Reproductive Hazards in the Lab

Lab Cleaning Personnel SOP and Training

EHS activity reports

Review and approval of revised Radiation Safety Manual

Review and approval of revised Biosafety Manual

Cold Rooms Condensation Problem in the Bellini and GCRC

Review and approval of risk-based assessment tool for retrofitting Emergency eyewashes and showers

Figure 2 Structure of Safety Committees at McGill University

2.1.3 Facilities Safety Committee (FSC)

The Facilities Safety Committee provides a forum for facilities managers, supervisors and employees to receive and review safety issues related to their specific operations and to develop safety policies and procedures. This Committee was originally set up to deal with Facilities Management and Ancillary Services (FMAS) only, however it was expanded to include all facility managers in order to attain a consistent safety standard across all the University. It is currently chaired by Wayne Wood, Director, EHS. Representatives are drawn from FMAS, Athletics, Residences, Macdonald Campus Farm, and the Gault Nature Reserve. In 2017-2018, the Committee met five times. Items discussed included:

Confined Space Entry

Faculty Safety Committees exist in the four faculties with laboratory operations and provide oversight of the Departmental Safety Committees and representation to the ULSC. These committees report to their respective Faculty Deans on health and safety activities and the head of each committee acts as a faculty representative on the ULSC. The Chair of each committee is also automatically a member of the ULSC. All four faculties sent representatives to ULSC meetings and all but one faculty (Agricultural and Environmental Sciences) presented an activity report. The Faculty Safety Committee Chairs are:

Science – Mr. Jean-Marc Gauthier

Medicine – Professor Dieter Reinhardt and Dr. Carmen Lampron

Agricultural and Environmental Sciences – Professor Petra Rohrbach

Engineering – Professor Milan Maric

2.1.5 Departmental Safety Committees (DSC)

Departmental Safety Committees are required for all departments which have operating labs. Each committee is required to submit a report of their annual activities and priorities for the upcoming year. At the time of this report, 29 out of 36 committees have submitted activity reports. Reminders were sent to all Department Safety Committee Chairs and a second reminder was sent to the Faculty Safety Committees and their respective Deans. EHS compiled, reviewed and summarized the reports for the University Laboratory Safety Committee to nominate the annual winner of the Departmental Safety Committee Productivity Award. The winner for 2017-2018 was the DSC from Comparative Medicine and Animal Resources Centre, chaired by Dr. Julie Chevrette.

(2) Represents the initial rate assessed by CNESST based on our past experience (for example, the 2018 McGill rate is based on our experience of

the years 2013, 2014, 2015 and 2016). (3) If McGill’s experience of previous years changes, the CNESST will recalculate the University’s rate and this will be reflected by an increase or a

decrease in the rate. (4) The premium used to be estimated at the beginning of each year. As of 2011, the CNESST has implemented a procedure for the payment of

premiums requesting that it be paid weekly, based on wages paid, along with all others statutory governmental deduction remittance. The total premium for 2018 will be known in 2019. The premium is based on the University’s insurable salary (calculation is: insurable salary x McGill rate / 100).

4 ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH & SAFETY

4.1 Laboratory Inspection Program

During the period from May 1st, 2017 to April 30th, 2018, 242 laboratories were inspected (231 initial inspections and 11 follow-up inspections) with an overall score of 78%. Figure 5 shows laboratory inspections scores since 2008-2009. The graph would suggest that there has been little change in performance, however new requirements in the area of biosafety have been introduced steadily over the past few years so one could conclude that the community is keeping pace with the changes.

Figure 5 Laboratory Inspection Score History, by Fiscal Year

Each inspection cycle of the University takes about 2 years, thus in any given year EHS inspects approximately 2 of the 4 faculties. For the year 2017-2018 those faculties were Agricultural and Environmental Engineering and Medicine. Figure 6-a shows the inspection scores for their initial inspections.

Interpreting Laboratory Inspection Scores Laboratory inspection scores are computed as percentages using the formula: number of inspection items deemed as “PASS” divided by the number of applicable items times one hundred. The inspection checklist is based on key “auditable” items. The checklist is displayed as Appendix 3. Prior to each cycle, the list is reviewed for relevance, adherence to regulatory compliance and relative risk (see fig 6-c). This past year, a new section was added to the inspection checklist to look at sustainable practices in the labs. This new section is not part of the overall inspection score but the results of the sustainability portion of the checklist will be used to nominate the lab most deserving of an award for sustainability. This year’s award went to the Food Science and Agricultural Chemistry undergraduate teaching lab. The laboratory inspection reports and scores are provided to the principal investigator (PI) along with an explanation of how the items were interpreted. If the PI receives less than a perfect score (100%), they are asked to respond to Environmental Health and Safety (EHS) within six weeks, explaining the corrective measures or action plan they will take. In addition, laboratories scoring less than 60% are subject to a follow-up inspection. Low response rates have been a chronic problem in recent years so a number of changes were put in place to increase accountability. In the past, PI’s were issued a second reminder to respond, however the new protocol calls for that reminder to be escalated to the Departmental Safety Committee as well as the Department Chair. Further, if a response is not received within the next 4 weeks the reminders are escalated to the Faculty Safety Committee and the Dean. This new protocol was presented to both the UHSC and ULSC and is now being put to the test at the end of the latest round. It is too early to tell how successful it will be. This year EHS performed all initial inspections using the myLab system and mobile pads. This served to eliminate the step of inspectors having to enter their inspections recorded on paper into a database. The new system makes relevant reports available in myLab for PIs’ review and enables them to respond to EHS using same. This change is one of the reasons why EHS managed to increase the number of inspections performed. Laboratories with scores of 75% and greater are considered “certifiable” and therefore qualify for approval of internal permits, safety certifications and sign-offs for research grant applications. However, they are still required to respond to EHS to explain the corrective measures they will take. Laboratories who score below 60% are automatically added to the list of laboratories to undergo follow-up inspections.

4.2 EHS Service Calls

The EHS service calls data are shown in Figure 7. In 2017-2018, EHS reported 706 service calls, on par with the average over the past several years. This table is generally reflective of the calls for service that come through the EHS office either by telephone or by e-mail. The HEAT software used to input all the service calls is obsolescent. It was primarily designed for issuing call tickets and is not up to standard for generating reports and statistics on accidents and incidents. A new incident management software, required for time and cost saving purposes, is being considered for both EHS and Campus Public Safety. Potential new replacement systems were studied and tested and a decision for a new system is pending.

4.3 Hazardous Waste Disposal Statistics

In accordance with legislation, Hazardous Waste Management (HWM) is mandated to collect, prepare and ship hazardous waste for disposal in a safe, environmentally sound and cost effective manner. The department also provides services in the area of laboratory decommissioning, response to hazardous materials emergencies and the collection of electronic waste (e-waste). Figure 8 shows the volumes for each of the categories of waste handled by HWM. Waste volumes fluctuate annually based on use by the McGill community.

While the numbers are consistent with those of previous years, there has been a significant increase in the volume of fluorescent lights and old electronic equipment. This can be explained by the amount of construction projects on campus, where buildings are being renovated and offices relocated. The recycling program for old electronics is also promoted extensively, which also may have contributed to the increase in volume collected.

5 EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT & PREPAREDNESS

5.1 University Emergency Notification System

The goal of McGill’s emergency notification system is to ensure that as many people as possible can receive urgent safety information during an emergency. Alerting tools include push notifications through the McGill App, SMS/text notification through Mir3, desktop pop-up messages through Alertus, as well as Alnote email messages, the www.mcgill.ca website and social media (McGill Twitter and Facebook). This year, EMP completed a campus-wide survey to gauge community awareness, adoption and preferences regarding the system. The Emergency Notification Working Group is using this data to improve emergency alerting procedures. Currently, enhanced notifications are being developed for the McGill App. This should lead to the phase out of the Mir3 SMS/text notification system by the end of 2018. Two bi-annual system tests were conducted in November 2017 and March 2018 to ensure system readiness.

5.2 Emergency Planning and Preparedness

The Emergency Management and Preparedness (EMP) unit engages in ongoing emergency planning and preparedness activities. In addition to annual reviews of all major emergency response plans (i.e., University Emergency Response Plan, Ammonia Leak Response Plans, Convocation Emergency Plan), this year unit members continued work with the cross-university Travel Emergency Work Group to develop procedures for travel-related emergencies, and work with Communications and External Relations on the Emergency Notification Protocol. EMP also coordinated the development of a Class Cancellation Checklist to aid decision-making in the event of severe weather or other major incident affecting McGill’s campuses, and conducted three debriefs following major incidents to promote continuous quality improvement across McGill’s emergency responder groups.

6 FIRE PREVENTION

6.1 Fire Alarms

The City of Montreal imposes an incremental fine structure for unfounded fire alarms that occur at each civic address. Fines range from $0 for a first alarm, to $250 for the second, $750 for the third and up to $2700 for the fourth and above. In order to reduce the number of unfounded fire alarms on campus and to defray the costs of those that continue to occur, the Fire Prevention Office imposes a penalty of $3000 per unfounded fire alarm. From May 1st 2017 to April 30th 2018, the Fire Prevention Office (FPO) received 72 notices for unfounded fire alarms from the City of Montreal, a decrease of 28 compared to the previous operating year. The office contested 10 fines, four successfully. Sixty-two fines were considered justified by the City of Montreal.

6.2 Reasons for Fire Alarms

Over the operating period following the rollout of the safety permits for Fire Protection Equipment Shutdowns (FS-002) and Hot Work in May 2014, incidences of unfounded alarm notices dropped 27% compared with the previous operating period. When averaged over time, the University records 90 incidences of unfounded alarms per operating period. For the period from May 2017 to April 2018, the number was 72—that is, 20% below average. One reason for this decrease, despite a considerable increase in the amount of construction work, is shorter equipment inspections cycles—that is, the number of months required to inspect all fire safety equipment, such as fire alarms systems, detection, protection, and suppression systems—which have been falling steadily. Shorter inspections cycles translate into faster turnaround times for equipment repairs which lead to less alarms triggered by equipment deficiencies.

6.3 Building Evacuation Exercises

The Fire Prevention Office conducted fire drills in 129 out of 132 required buildings (not including 3 buildings that were empty during the drills period) for a success rate of 98%. Of the three remaining buildings, two were under construction and unoccupied; and a fire alarm the day prior to the scheduled drill in the remaining building triggered an emergency evacuation that met the objectives of the exercise.

6.4 Fire Equipment Upgrades Program

The Fire Prevention Office has embarked on a comprehensive project to replace outdated fire alarm systems and alarm transmitter boxes. Forty fire systems have been identified as priorities based on an equipment risk assessment which evaluates system type, age of equipment, building occupancy, and equipment deficiencies (such as deficiencies frequency, severity, and detectability) as well as cost. See Appendix 4 for a list of equipment upgrades status. Fiscal years indicate period during which work was completed or year planned for work to be performed. Note that next-generation fire alarm systems and transmitter boxes require IP line connectivity.

Downtown Campus

The SOC downtown received, on average, 361 calls a week compared to 327 last reporting year. The average amount of criminal incidents went down slightly from 5 to 4 a week as compared to last year. In general, the volume of incident reports is similar to last year with the exception in the category of “Provide Assistance”. There was a 21% increase in requests over 2016-2017, particularly for agents, adapted transports and Lost & Found services. Requests for agents rose 22% due to construction on campus and an improved process in our Adaptive Transport Service resulted in an increase in volume of 30%. Overall, compared to last reporting period, there was a weekly average increase of 10% in calls, requests and services.

Macdonald Campus

There was a slight decrease (of 4.1%) in “Unsecured Area” alarms as compared to last year, attributed to ongoing efforts in educating and promoting safety initiatives across various campus units. The total number of weekly calls received by the Macdonald Campus SOC increased from an average of 45 a week last year to an average of 72 a week this year, a weekly increase of 60%. Notably, the increases occurred primarily in the following categories: “Emergency Calls” (23.5%), “Provide Assistance” (32.9%) and “Miscellaneous” (90%). In the case of Provide Assistance, the increase in construction projects accounts for a large part of extra calls to the SOC. As regards to the category of “Miscellaneous”, a new digital process for municipal parking infractions accounts for almost 86% of all the incidents in this category. Additionally, Macdonald campus is seeing a noticeable jump in the volume of traffic and the accompanying parking incidents requiring the assistance of our Security Staff. Moreover, increased traffic due to ongoing construction around the campus has resulted in the need for more resources for traffic and safety control across campus.

7.2 Reported Criminal Incidents (Downtown & Macdonald Campus)

A detailed breakdown of crime-related incidents for this and the previous three years is shown in Figure 14 on the following page. It is noteworthy to mention that there are no national standards governing the reporting and classification of crime statistics for Canadian post-secondary institutions and therefore these statistics are compiled by Security Services.

Downtown Campus

There were 243 criminal incidents reported to Security Services on the Downtown campus, a reduction of 6% (from 259 to 243 from last reporting year) of crime on campus. Despite an overall decrease in criminal incidents, there was a slight increase of 5.3% in the category of “Incidents against Property”, which includes “Theft”, “Break and Enter” and “Mischief”. The subcategory which represents, by far, the largest portion of criminality in any reporting period is in “Theft under $5000” comprising 71.2% (or 173 incidents) of all crime on campus this reporting year. In terms of what was stolen, the theft of cash and laptops together represented the lions-share of targeted items with 62 (or 34.4%) thefts involving cash/wallets and 55 incidents (or 30.6%) involving the theft of laptops. Taken together, the theft of laptops and cash represents 65% of everything stolen on our campus. The remaining items broadly include 16 bicycles, 13 electronic devices, 7 backpacks, 3 musical instruments and 24 categorized as miscellaneous. The locations that experienced thefts are broken down in types of locations: Sports Complex, Libraries, Residences, Engineering Complex, Music buildings and bicycle racks. As in past years, the Sports Complex represents the most vulnerable area to theft. Of the 54 different locations where theft occurred on campus, the Sports Complex accounted for 26% of all incidents. Theft at various residence locations accounted for 18% of the thefts on campus: Carrefour alone represented 5% of these incidents, the rest occurring in 11 other residence locations. McLennan, Redpath, Gelber and Macdonald Stewart libraries represented 12% of all theft and the music complex (Strathcona Music, New Music Building and Elizabeth Wirth) comprised 9% of the thefts on campus. Finally, 5% of all thefts happened at various bicycle racks across campus and the engineering complex (McConnell, Macdonald Harrington and Macdonald Engineering buildings) represented 3% of theft on campus. “Incidents against good order” and “Incidents against the person” combined, decreased by 51% from the previous year. While this is a significant drop, it is, in fact, a return to more normal values as seen in past years (see Figure 14). For example, in the case of “Incidents against good order” there were 17 fewer incidents, or a 62.9% decline in this category, particularly in “Threats or Harassments” falling significantly from 19 to only 1 incident this reporting year. For “Incidents against the Person”, there was a 38.5% decrease, most notably in “Indecent Exposure or Peeping” which went from 15 incidents last year to 9 incidents this year. Montreal is also, by all accounts, a safe city to live and work in and certainly, incidents involving “crimes against the person” continue to decline (Service de police de la Ville de Montréal 2017 annual report). By offering training like our conflict resolution workshop, Security Services continues to strive towards ensuring an environment that is free from violence for all of our McGill community Macdonald Campus

There was a 20% decrease in criminal incidents from the previous reporting period at Macdonald campus. Most notably, there was a 66% decrease in incidents of “Trespassing” and a 23% decrease in the category of “Thefts under $5000”. There was also a 73% decrease in the number of Liquor Law Violations. However, there was a marked increase of 115% in the category of “Other” (mostly arising from incidents of “Hit and Run” where parked cars received minor damages). As mentioned earlier, because parking on Macdonald campus is at overcapacity the result has been the increase in these minor accidents.

7.3 Benchmarking Criminal Incidents

The Criminal Incidents Index (CII) measures the number of criminal incidents on both McGill campuses per 1,000 students over a specified fiscal year, compared to eight other Canadian universities whose student populations exceed 20,000 and for which criminal incidents data are available. Campus Public Safety relies on its own resources to collect this data given that there is no national body that publishes such statistics. Universities publish their own statistics with considerable delay and, as a result, the CII cites statistics for the previous fiscal year, 2016-2017. As a result of this delay the statistics for McGill University are for the fiscal year 2016-2017 and thus do not match the current year statistics presented elsewhere in this report. Note that these statistics are calculated based on individual interpretation of annual reports published online by the various listed universities. The definition of criminal incidents and how statistics are categorized across each university may vary.

8 2017-2018 SAFETY ACTIVITIES

8.1 McGill Safety Training

Figure 16 on the following page summarizes the safety training sessions provided by the various McGill safety units between May 1st 2017 and April 30th 2018. The EHS unit introduced two new training sessions:

1) WHMIS 2015 for lab personnel, in line with the new globally harmonized system adopted by the Canadian government.

2) Transports of Dangerous Goods Class 6.2 – Infectious Substances training was created following an incident related to the transfer of a specimen vial that broke while in the possession of the researcher using public transit.

Security Services replaced Non-Violent Crisis Intervention (NVCI) training with a similar workshop called De-escalating Potentially Violent Situations. The Crisis and Trauma Resource Institute certified two individuals from Security Services in the spring to provide the training to McGill constituents. Six sessions were offered in the spring and fall with a total of 90 McGill community members trained.

8.2 2017-2018 Highlights

8.2.1 Environmental Health and Safety

Environmental Health & Safety

This year marked the introduction of a completely new training course in the Workplace Hazardous Materials Information System (referred to as WHMIS2015), which underwent a major overhaul by the Canadian government in order to bring it into line with the Globally Harmonized System. Over 1000 participants attended sessions of the new course and sat the new exam. Overall, in the area of training EHS reached a new high-water level of over 6000 registrations in safety courses. Laboratory inspections underwent a significant change by migrating the software to the myLab platform which enabled the use of mobile pads and resulted in an increase the number of laboratory inspections. In 2017, EHS/HWM underwent an internal audit. The Inherent Risk Rating was “High” and the overall audit rating was “Needs improvement”. The high risk issues identified were: Hazardous Waste Facility, Protocol for Controlled Substances, Application & Software Management – MyLab, Budget Management, and Key

Processes & Procedures. These and the moderate risk issues have been addressed already or are part of an action plan. The outstanding items remaining to be addressed relate mostly to IT support, including the need for a new call ticket system, an incident tracking system to enable statistical analysis, and a course registration and training management system. Environmental Health and Safety actively contributed to the development of a new Laboratory Design standard for McGill. This standard was developed in conjunction with the Design Group of FMAS in order to incorporate sustainability and health and safety considerations into the design process for new laboratories. As well, EHS developed a new risk-based assessment tool to assist in retrofitting older laboratories with their needs for emergency eye wash and shower units. The past year marked the first full cycle of EHS providing oversight services under a memo of agreement with the MNI. In the past, the MNI shared a Radiation Safety Officer (RSO) and managed its radiation safety services in close conjunction with the MUHC, but since the departure of the Royal Victoria Hospital to the Glen Campus, they have a part-time RSO working exclusively for them without the benefits of working as part of a team. With this new agreement, EHS took over the responsibility for conducting radiation lab inspections in 5 research labs at the MNI, while the MNI RSO retains responsibility for radiation protection services at the MNI Cyclotron and the Positron Emission Topography Unit. Further EHS takes responsibility for providing professional supervision of the MNI’s RSO. Hazardous Waste Management

The Sustainable Labs Working Group, chaired by the HWM manager, launched the Sustainable Labs Award program, which recognizes efforts made by members of McGill laboratories to make their labs more sustainable by integrating environmental, social and economic considerations into the way they work. The first award ceremony will be held on the last day of McGill Safety Week next September. HWM has upgraded the waste solvent disposal operations at McIntyre by installing a 600V electric plug near the loading dock area. This upgrade will allow our contractor to use an electric vacuum, instead of fuel operated, to transfer the waste into a pumper truck for final disposal. Since the noise level will be below the city of Montreal’s curfew threshold, this will enable this operation to be performed early in the morning (6h00), when the building occupancy is low, to avoid noise, traffic disruption, and odour issues.

8.2.2 Campus Public Safety

Security Services

This year saw the implementation of additional training and development programs for the Security Services Operations unit. Mental health first aid training is providing agents with the skills necessary to recognize the signs and symptoms of someone possibly experiencing a mental health problem or crisis on campus and intervene effectively. In response to the ever-increasing statistics regarding fentanyl deaths in Quebec, training on naloxone administration is now being offered to agents, allowing them to respond in a timely manner to temporarily reverse an opioid overdose until medical help arrives. Also, all patrollers and certain other agents now carry EpiPen Auto-Injectors to manage allergic reactions. Agents are also now being trained to offer a compassionate and supportive response to disclosures of sexual violence or harassment. Two individuals from Security Services became certified to teach a conflict resolution workshop known as De-escalating Potentially Violent Situations (DPVS) by the well-recognized Crisis and Trauma Resource Institute (CTRI). Furthermore, one more manager successfully completed the Leadership Development Program (LDP), bringing the number of departmental LDP graduates to three, with another employee accepted to complete the LDP in FY19.

Campus Public Safety participated in the third annual Health Fair, where interactive activities proved to be popular among patrons of the fair. Community Relations along with Emergency Management and Preparedness (EMP) collaborated in the first tabling at the MForum Employee Fair. Community Relations worked with Graphics McGill to create a wallet-sized map featuring important and useful safety and security resources, the night route map, and locations of all emergency phones on campus. The new map has been very well received among students and staff.

Two new positions were established to enhance team efficiency and productivity. Campus Public Safety now has an Associate Director, as well as an Agency Trainer. Improvements in knowledge management include the creation of a new report on Statistics and Crime and Prevention, summarizing criminal incidents, prevention measures, and community outreach. The report is delivered to the Associate Director of Campus Public Safety on a quarterly basis.

As a result of an internal audit exercise, Security Services has made improvements to its existing policies and procedures in order to have better control over the Blank Access Card (BAC) inventory throughout campus. Campus Public Safety will also be benefiting from the purchase of an additional 25 Area Access Manager (AAM) licenses that will increase the number of AAMs able to work simultaneously on the Lenel OnGuard access system for the management of their card readers and access levels.

The purchase of 680 Sherbrooke Street West required assigning a security manager in order to implement our own procedures and security personnel at the front desk to manage all security systems in the building. Campus Public Safety played a vital role in the installation and operation of bollards at several access points, safely restricting campus access of vehicles to community members and visitors only, as well as protecting the community from possible attacks. In fiscal year 18, bollards were installed at three locations controlling access to campus and more importantly protecting the McGill community. Both the lower McTavish Street bollards near the Armstrong building and the upper McTavish street bollards near the Leacock building were installed and made functional in September of 2017. Roddick Gates bollards were installed and functional in May of 2018. Since its implementation we have saved in security costs of approximately $2,150.00 /month. The McTavish gate bollards, which is part of the McTavish revitalization project, should be installed and functional in November of 2018. Finally, we are presently working on a temporary installation for Milton gate and as soon as a proper solution is found, the installation will be begin. Security Services also acquired a new minibus to facilitate the transport of individuals with physical impairments or injuries that compromise their mobility. Macdonald Campus This year saw the implementation of a municipal digital ticketing system, with an improved capacity to monitor issuance, retrieval/collection of fines, etc. and the resultant increase in revenues from parking regulation enforcement on campus. The collection of parking infractions in now completely done online via BANNER resulting in an over 90% collection retrieval rate for parking fines. As well, for the John Abbott

McGill University Annual Safety Report 2017-2018 Page 30 of 41

parking system, a better database has improved the repayment rate to McGill for parking infractions incurred by students at the college. Several large-scale scenarios were practiced this year, including a collaboration with John Abbott College for active shooter on campus protocols and with our own Macdonald campus community for hazmat accident response. The drills help us to better train, assess and improve our response to incidents on campus, including improving communication and collaboration between Campus Public Security, the local police department and the campus communities of McGill and John Abbott College. Security hardware upgrades to all mechanical rooms with the installation of 13 card readers, aim to standardize and implement better control of access to these key areas. In a similar manner a number of camera systems in keys areas were installed on our campus (Mac Athletics, Laird Hall and more ongoing this year as well). A new vehicle was purchased for patrols and an additional hiring of security officers has helped to deal with the increase of ongoing construction projects on the Macdonald campus. Emergency Management & Preparedness (EMP)

In May 2017, EMP organized an ammonia leak drill at the Macdonald campus arena. The drill was the second of a two-part exercise program to enhance ammonia risk awareness and response capabilities at Macdonald campus. In October 2017, more than 40 responders from the Incident Command, Emergency Operations Center, and Emergency Communications groups participated in a flood tabletop exercise. This was the first time all three groups practiced simultaneously outside of a full-scale exercise. In terms of community engagement, EMP met with the chairs and Dean of Macdonald campus to discuss emergency preparedness and response, as well as presenting at MFORUM in March 2018. The unit was also invited to present on the Incident Command System at the Association des cadres et administrateurs de sécurité des universités du Québec (ACASUQ) bi-annual conference in May 2017. Fire Prevention

Starting in September 2017, the Fire Prevention Office began overseeing the fire prevention program—including equipment inspections and maintenance—for Student Housing and Hospitality Services. Collaboration between the two departments has resulted in equipment upgrades (Royal Victoria College, Eco Residences, Douglas Hall, and Bishop Mountain Hall). A comprehensive upgrade of the New Residence Hall fire alarm system is planned for 2020. In close collaboration with SHHS, additional upgrades for other Residences buildings will be planned for 2019 and 2020. Since February 2018 a new Fire Prevention Officer has been enhancing oversight of the fire prevention program at the Macdonald Campus. Assigning team members to each of these sectors has enhanced the team’s capacity to streamline processes and address equipment deficiencies. A comprehensive upgrade of the Macdonald-Stewart Complex fire alarm system was completed over the summer 2018. Other equipment upgrades on Macdonald Campus are planned for 2019. The replacement of analog alarm transmitter boxes and outdated fire alarm panels continues moving forward. Funds have been allocated to the Fire Equipment Upgrades Program, ensuring its accelerated roll-out. Continuing improvements to data collection processes facilitated the implementation of quarterly performance metrics for key departmental activities, including inspections and maintenance, fire alarms management, unfounded alarms administration, and equipment shutdown (FS-002) request approvals. A Construction Advisory Team with representatives from Parking and Transportation Services, Security Services, Construction Safety, and the Fire Prevention Office, rolled out a hoist operations process leading to increased oversight of safety conditions during these activities.

McGill University Annual Safety Report 2017-2018 Page 31 of 41

Working with the Montreal Fire Department, our team introduced a concise template for fire safety plans,

which will facilitate a faster turn-around time for their development.

9 THE YEAR MOVING FORWARD

9.1 Environmental Health and Safety

9.1.1 Environmental Health & Safety EHS Unit Objectives: With the implementation of the new globally harmonized system of hazard warnings, many pictograms have been eliminated and some new ones have been introduced. This has necessitated the modification of the laboratory information placards displayed on the doors of laboratories to provide hazard information to emergency responders. The new Laboratory Information Cards (LICs) will be produced using the myLab system, thereby phasing out the old in-house software previously used to generate the placards to display safety and emergency information on lab doors. Additionally the next myLab module to be rolled out will be the biohazards module which will enable EHS to maintain and track biohazard containment levels and internal permits as well as to introduce an inventory of biohazardous agents. Another project will be to develop and post an on-line training video for new graduate students working in labs. The presentation will advise graduate students of what they need to know before starting work, the training they must take, the protective equipment they must wear in the lab, what to do in case of an emergency, some information on reproductive hazards, and where to turn for more information and resources. This coming year there will also be a focus on implementing the action plan to meet the requirements of the Internal Audit. One of the actions will be an enterprise risk assessment exercise, to be conducted in conjunction with the department of Risk Management. Another project will be to establish the capacity to perform fit-testing for employees requiring respirators e.g. for asbestos work, certain animal care activities, and emergency response. Up until the present the University relied entirely on external service providers who provide good service but are very expensive and unable to provide the turnaround time needed for emergency situations (like the recent fire in McIntyre). In the event of another influenza pandemic McGill will be in a much better position to address its own needs for fitting personnel with respirators’. 9.1.2 Hazardous Waste Management HWM received funding approval from the Sustainability Project Fund (SPF), as well as Facilities Management (FMAS) to install a biomedical waste sterilization system in the Hazardous Waste Management warehouse. This will avoid the need to send biohazardous waste to the United States for disposal. The project team will hold a kick off meeting in September 2018. The installation will enable the University to avoid sending non-anatomical biohazardous waste to the United States for disposal. This will translate into an estimated reduction of 34% of greenhouse gas emissions associated with the disposal of this waste.

A full-scale exercise to test the Emergency Response Assistance Plan (ERAP) (i.e. radioactive spill response protocols) will take place at the Macdonald Campus. This is a requirement from Transport Canada that pertains to our transport of radioactive material.

McGill University Annual Safety Report 2017-2018 Page 32 of 41

9.2 Campus Public Safety

9.2.1 Emergency Management & Preparedness Planning is underway for a full-scale exercise in fall 2018. A full-scale emergency simulation is held once every three years as an opportunity to exercise all levels of McGill’s emergency response structure and train with external partners. In terms of training, EMP is planning to launch Emergency Management 101, a short session available to all community members that covers key emergency procedures, preparedness tips, and roles and responsibilities. In addition, we are also developing two in-house training programs on the Incident Command System (ICS) and Emergency Operations Center (EOC) for responders and staff members who would be involved in emergency response. The purpose of the training is to replace training currently provided by the Justice Institute of British Columbia as a cost saving initiative, and to better tailor the training to the McGill context. The Travel Emergency Working Group is completing its work to reduce travel related risks. Procedures are now in place for McGill travelers in distress to reach out to the university via +1-514-398-3000. In the coming months, the working group will roll out the procedure to community members, including the distribution of the Travel Emergency Resource Guide to senior administrators. EMP will be acquiring AlertGo, an emergency response app, which will promote easier and more effective communication between responders during emergency incidents. EMP will be creating a Strategic Plan for 2019-2021 to articulate program priorities, guide future development of McGill’s emergency management program, and ensure alignment with industry standards. 9.2.2 Fire Prevention Our Team will implement a prevention program focused on the University’s most vulnerable populations, including persons with disabilities, infant populations, and occupants of high-capacity buildings. A call-for-tender process will be launched in fall 2018 for all equipment-related activities performed by external vendors, including equipment inspections, routine maintenance, priority repairs, and new installations. Our team will enforce vendor accountability by conducting spot-checks of work billed by vendors. We will continue succession-planning efforts, focusing on job shadowing and process documentation. Our team will also explore the launch of a Fire Prevention internship program in collaboration with Collège Montmorency with the objective of establishing positive relationships with potential future hires. The Fire Equipment Upgrades Program will continue in close collaboration of McGill Network and Communication Services, Student Housing and Hospitality Services, Facilities Operations and Development, Facilities Project Management, Macdonald Campus Operations, Procurement, Building Directors, building occupants, external vendors, and other stakeholders as required. 9.2.3 Security Services Security Services will be providing yearly training to its staff on Active Shooter protocol and other emergencies in coordination with other Campus Public Safety units. Security Services is also working on the installation of new hardware for all classrooms on campus in partnership with Design Services and Project Management to protect the McGill community against intruders such as active shooters. This project will include Macdonald Campus as well. It is also finalizing an Incident Management System proposal in collaboration with IT Services and Procurement for the eventual purchase of an IMS software. The creation of an Emergency Calling Procedure poster to be laminated and installed in all buildings across both

McGill University Annual Safety Report 2017-2018 Page 33 of 41

campuses will ensure that community members have access to the appropriate contact numbers to use in different emergencies.

As part of its uncompromising commitment to providing superior security services, Security Services will be purchasing a software designed to control Medeco-type keys and to provide an up-to-date database that will distinguish the specific keys required to open specific doors. Plans are also underway for the creation of user-restricted access cards, i.e. access cards specific to visitor use, casual use, or use by McGill service providers, with an ultimate objective of replacing all Blank Access Cards (BAC) presently in circulation on campus.

The unit will equip the University’s latest acquisition, 680 Sherbrooke west, with the same security devices that are currently in place elsewhere on campus and will continue to implement corresponding operations as well.

Owing to an already highly satisfactory and well-established relationship with Securitas who provide uniformed agents to the McGill Security Services department, we will be working on a Request for Proposal document for a new contract as of May 01, 2019. Security Services at Macdonald Campus will also be included in this RFP.

There has been some turnover in personnel over the past year. All but one position have been filled and we anticipate being at capacity by the end of the year.

Macdonald Campus

As of May 30, 2019, McGill Security Services will no longer be providing John Abbott College security and parking services.
