Keeping UTMB's faculty and staff safe in the workplace
Employee Health's mission is to help keep UTMB's faculty and staff safe in the workplace by providing pre-employment drug screenings, new employee medical clearances, work-related health services, clinical and research occupational health programs, medical care for work-related injuries or illnesses, medical treatment for blood-borne pathogen and communicable disease exposures, and foreign travel medical examinations. We do not provide primary care services. For assistance with those types of services, please contact your provider or the UTMB Access Center.

Immunization and Screening Requirements for Health Care Workers
As a health care provider in the state of Texas, UTMB must ensure all current and incoming health care workers are immunized against vaccine-preventable diseases. Limiting exposure to and the possible transmission of communicable diseases is vital to our mission and in protecting the health of our patients, students and staff.

Research Lab Safety Report
UTMB has long believed that our employees and the communities we serve play a key role in the success of our research enterprise—in particular, our infectious disease research program and campus facilities designed for the safe study of serious viral and bacterial threats to human health.
The university is committed to the security of our faculty, students and communities and will continue to make public information about possible laboratory-associated exposures to infectious agents in our research program. Although very few of the infectious agents studied in the high containment (BSL3 and BSL4) laboratories are transmissible from person-to-person, we believe each of these constituencies has an important stake in the safe operations of our laboratories and facilities.
Click here to review the history of possible occupational exposures at UTMB’s research laboratories. Because faculty and students are encouraged to routinely report any unusual event in the laboratory, this document includes incidents in which there is no likely exposure to an infectious agent. In the unusual situation where the possible exposure involved a virus or bacterium that is reasonably capable of being transmitted from one person to another, that fact is noted in the document.
