 From its inception, the EU had actively pursued the integration of Health, Safety and Environmental (HSE) considerations in the Ministry’s operations.  With the enactment of the Occupational Health and Safety Act (OSHA) of 2004, the EU was transformed to the Environmental Health and Safety Unit (EHSU) Unit in August 2009.
