28 FEB. 2022 · DAY IN THE LIFE PODCAST
Our Podcast today is slightly different than some of the others we have recorded. While the Environmental, Health, Safety and Sustainability (EHS&S) Major at UF has been extremely successful – with Approximately 2,500 graduates, and nearly a 100% placement rate for all graduates since the program started in 1986. In addition, students receive significant starting salaries upon graduation, with more than one job offer for many graduates - just to name a few things. However, the recruiting of High School students is still very difficult. One of the main reasons for that is, high school graduates are not at all familiar with what the EHS&S profession is, so they have no idea exactly what the day-to-day activities and responsibilities of a graduate might include.
To address this concern, in this Podcast, we are asking five of our EHS&S Alums to take some time and describe exactly what they do. What does their day entail? What are their job responsibilities, and what are their goals? What do they do to achieve their goals? And we also want to know from them, what they like about their jobs, and what they want recruits to know about jobs in the EHS&S field. Alums who will be participating today graduated anywhere from 1998 to 2017 – almost a 20-year span - so we provide various views from different time perspectives, as well as from different EHS positions within various organizations.
Therefore, the tile of this Podcast is a Day in the Life of an EHS&S Alum.
The five Alums participating in this Podcast are:
•Addie Burden, a 2005 Graduate of UF, who is currently working for US Ecology, in Bellville, Michigan.
•Heather Chan, a 2007 Graduate of UF, who is currently working for Marathon Petroleum Corporation in Findlay, OH,
•Even Rinke, a 2017 Graduate of UF, who is currently working for BASF Corporation in Wyandotte, MI.
•Taylor Fetty, a 2008 Graduate of UF, who is currently working for Adtalem Global Education, headquartered in Chicago, IL
•Jeff Sexten, a 1998 UF Graduate, currently working for XPO Logistics Inc. in Ann Arbor, MI
While listening to the Podcast you will hear about some wide-ranging experiences, from these very successful and highly engaged Alums. They make it perfectly clear that there is certainly a variation in job responsibilities from one job, and one company to another.
Another unique aspect that all the Alums shared during the Podcast, is that they regularly cross paths with other UF EHS Alums, in their day to day jobs. This Speaks directly to the success of our graduates at truly being leaders in the field, and the lifelong friendships they’ve developed through the program
For those of you who might be interested in a career in Environmental, Health, Safety and Sustainability, we hope this Podcast gave you a better idea of just exactly what you actually do on a daily basis with this Degree. And, we obviously hope you consider letting us meet you and tell you more about what you can do with this exciting degree!

9 ABR. 2021 · In today’s Podcast, Subject Matter Expert Zach Kiehl will discuss a new concept that his Company, Sentinel Occupational Safety, has developed, and is now offering to private sector businesses across the Country. Their product is called SafeGuard™. SafeGuard is an IoT platform that provides an early warning capability through real-time, predictive, and longitudinal oversight of personnel in high-risk environments. It relies on the recent proliferation of wearable sensors, wireless communication, and domains like contextual AI, to make health & safety personalized and proactive. The idea was extensively tested by Sentinel through various US Military Applications. Specifically, the Military had a special need for a better-connected health & safety system for monitoring maintenance technicians working in confined spaces. SafeGuard evolved from a confined space monitoring system to an intelligent guardian for humans in difficult environments. SafeGuard is distributed and marketed through Sentinel’s “Safety as a Service™” and is available for piloting a commercial purchase.
Zach Kiehl’s technical background is in Biomedical Engineering and technical program management. He has worked on and led many cutting-edge R&D projects for the Federal DOD – all of them focused on improving the health, safety, training, and performance of humans in difficult operational environments. Zach is passionate about building and using innovative technologies to keep people healthy, safe, and productive, which is why he and Aptima founded Sentinel in 2020. Zach is from Piqua, OH, and received a Bachelors and Masters in Science in Biomedical Engineering from Wright State University. He also recently completed and MBA from the Kelley School of Business at Indiana University. Zach is also a certified Project Management Professional.
This Podcast is another offering in our efforts to introduce the EHS marketplace to new products, new applications, new approaches, and new philosophies, to help keep people safe in any endeavor.

In this Podcast, we will define what Special Locking and Delayed Egress is all about. We will discuss when and where to use it. We will talk about how this might affect Fire Safety at the facility.

20 ENE. 2021 · In today’s Podcast, Subject Matter Expert Scott Lowry will discuss a new Emergency Preparedness Planning Tool that he helped develop, called StrataSite. StrataSite is a dynamic, cloud-based Emergency Preparedness Planning Tool. It focuses on bringing key emergency planning members of a facility together with their local first responder community (police, fore, EMS, etc.) to jointly plan for any/all potential emergencies – from man-made weather-related disasters to hazmat spills, to workplace shootings.
Changes to plans are made in real time and can be seen by all who are given access to the portal. In the Podcast, we will further describe who developed it, and what it consists of. We will talk about the importance of planning for a community wide response, and why it is a difficult task to undertake. We will talk about specific elements that should be included in any good plan. We will talk about special planning considerations for Rural Communities.
And we will talk about how important it is to take an All-Hazards approach. In addition, we will highlight some of the special features and benefits of this new STRATASITE Planning tool.
