MCUT adopted the Ministry of Education's Campus Health and Safety Management System certification in 2011, received three stages of guidance from the Ministry's advisory committee in 2020, and passed the fourth-stage certification conducted by an audit team of experts convened by the Ministry of Education in 2021. To further align with the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), the University obtained ISO 45001:2018 Occupational Health and Safety Management System certification in July 2022, covering administrative offices and departmental laboratories, and applicable to all faculty, staff, and student workers across the University.

MCUT conducts hazard identification and risk assessment to inventory daily operations and evaluate risk levels, prioritizing chemical safety and fire safety in laboratories as the two key focus areas. The University has established the "Occupational Safety and Health, and Toxic and Concerned Chemical Substances Management Committee," along with regulations and procedures such as the "Occupational Safety and Health Management Regulations," "Laboratory Management Regulations," "Fire Safety Equipment Management Regulations," and "Accident Response Management Regulations," and has built a chemical management system platform to carry out assessment and tiered management, effectively reducing risks associated with laboratory operations.

In the event of an accident or safety incident, an investigation team is convened in accordance with the Accident Response Management Regulations, following a five-step process: establishing a timeline, assigning investigation responsibilities, gathering information, determining root causes, and proposing improvement recommendations, in order to reduce potential campus safety concerns. In the 113 academic year, no major injury or loss incidents occurred; a total of 776 injury/loss incidents involving faculty, staff, and students were recorded, of which 270 occurred off-campus and 506 occurred on-campus. In addition, there were 36 laboratory accident-related injuries (including student laboratory injuries).

MCUT adopted the ISO 14001:2015 Environmental Management System and obtained certification in 2012, establishing the "Campus Environmental Management Review Committee" to continuously advance environmental protection policy and improvement mechanisms in accordance with PDCA principles. The University has also built systems such as "Campus EHS Improvement," "Laboratory Waste Liquid Management," and "Toxic and Concerned Chemical Substances (Reagent) Management," using digitalized information management to stay fully aware of anomalies in campus environmental and occupational safety conditions, thereby reducing and mitigating risk.

The Environmental Protection and Occupational Safety Office regularly holds general occupational safety and health training (at least 3 hours per session) for new faculty and staff, graduate students (including international students) in laboratories, and outsourced contractors, and arranges 3 hours of annual refresher training for dedicated safety and health officers. Each year, the local fire department is invited to campus to help conduct fire safety training for all incoming students, as well as fire and self-protection group training for faculty and staff, in order to improve disaster prevention capabilities among faculty, staff, and students. The University also places importance on workplace safety at off-campus internship sites, requiring internship cooperating organizations to provide occupational safety training so that students understand the environment and related occupational safety knowledge of their internship placements and avoid workplace hazards. For contractors, once relevant projects are awarded by the Procurement Center, contractors are provided with a "Contractor Engagement Undertaking" and a "Construction Work Safety Notice," which detail workplace precautions, potential hazard reminders, and required safety and health measures, and contractors and construction personnel are required to read and sign these documents.

In addition, the University's Health Care Team holds CPR+AED and first-aid responder training every academic year, to equip faculty and students with first-aid knowledge and skills so that they can provide correct first-aid response in the event of an incident, reducing the severity of harm, enhancing campus safety, and enabling genuine self-rescue and rescue-of-others capability in daily life.

The University applies risk control principles, prioritizing enhanced control measures for "chemistry laboratories" and "machine shop practice workshops" on campus. Laboratory management regulations are in place, with each lab managed and maintained by a designated laboratory head who is responsible for self-inspections, related safety and health duties, and completing relevant forms and records. The establishment of laboratories follows applicable regulations and internal University rules. Every laboratory is equipped with a first-aid kit, protective clothing, protective footwear, and an emergency shower/eyewash station, and workplace exposure monitoring is conducted annually based on annual usage and hazard levels to reduce exposure risk, covering items such as acetone, ethanol, sodium hydroxide, acetonitrile, nitric acid, sulfuric acid, and phosphoric acid. Machine shop practice workshops provide safety goggles and protective clothing and require students to wear them properly to improve safety resilience. Disaster prevention operations are coordinated by the Campus Security Center, which maintains a Campus Disaster Prevention and Response Plan led by a dedicated campus security officer, with support from the Environmental Protection and Occupational Safety Office and the General Affairs Office. An SMS notification system and an OA notification system have been established to enable real-time notification and mobilization in response to incidents.

Campus disaster prevention operations and emergency response are conducted in accordance with Ministry of Education requirements, with various scenario drills held every September, including laboratory fire drills, injury rescue drills, and earthquake evacuation/shelter drills. These simulated exercises strengthen disaster prevention, self-rescue and rescue-of-others capability, and response skills, cultivating safety awareness among all faculty, staff, and students and effectively reducing losses. Fire equipment is inspected by a licensed professional agency as required by law, and laboratory areas are also required to conduct self-inspections to ensure that necessary emergency response and disaster rescue equipment is fully in place.

To safeguard the food safety and health of faculty, staff, and students, the University applies each year for the Ministry of Education's "Health Promotion Program," organizing activities such as "Healthy Weight," "Sex Education (including HIV/AIDS Prevention)," "Tobacco Control (including Smoke-Free Campus)," "Healthy Eating," and "First-Aid Training," to build a healthier campus. The University also conducts regular workplace exposure monitoring and periodic health check-ups to assess actual workplace conditions and exposure status and prevent occupational illness. Currently, the level of health check-up applied depends on the category of environment personnel are exposed to, alongside "Health Care Program" activities, health education outreach, and lectures under "health promotion activities," in order to build a reassuring workplace and pass on the concept of campus health and safety to every faculty and staff member. In 2025, there were no cases of occupational illness determined by a specialist physician; the top five abnormal findings from general health check-ups were: 1. body mass index, 2. waist circumference, 3. total cholesterol, 4. resting ECG, and 5. vision. Briefing sessions explaining abnormal findings are held, and individuals with moderate or severe abnormalities in physical examinations are arranged for follow-up and care visits with a visiting physician and nurse.

As an example from the 2025 Health Promotion Program, a 3-hour lecture titled "A Happier Life with Less Sugar" was held, with 80 participants in total. A post-lecture survey was conducted, collecting 68 valid responses; of these, 61 votes (89.7%) rated the lecturer's content as "very satisfied" and 7 votes (10.3%) as "satisfied." Feedback noted that the session gave participants a deeper understanding of diabetes management and better control over diet and lifestyle care.

MCUT regularly convenes a "Traffic Management Committee" to address traffic safety issues for faculty, staff, and students, reporting annually on traffic safety education outreach outcomes and statistics/analysis of traffic accidents for the year. To reduce student traffic accidents, the University has engaged Feiling International Traffic Safety Promotion Company to visit campus and promote proper motorcycle safety practices combined with hazard-perception training, helping prevent motorcycle accidents among students and avoid lifelong regret. Classroom content includes annual traffic accident statistics and analysis, motorcycle speed awareness, traffic violation penalties and regulations, accident prevention, road hazard awareness, right-of-way, and accident handling procedures, delivered through interactive teaching combined with live motorcycle demonstrations, achieving strong student engagement and good results. The University also holds motorcycle registration traffic safety briefing sessions to build students' defensive driving awareness and road safety consciousness. Through traffic safety outreach and education, the number of traffic accidents in the 113 academic year fell from 136 in the prior year to 96, and the number of crutch/ mobility-aid usage cases also declined correspondingly, from 41 to 18, indicating that traffic safety initiatives have been effective.
