March 3, 2025, St. Paul, Minnesota: Data Center Safety Council (DCSC) is pleased to announce new Strategic Corporate Member CBRE, the world’s largest commercial real estate services and investment firm, who joins previously announced Founding Members EdgeCore, Oracle, STACK Infrastructure, Salesforce, Vantage Data Centers and Yondr and Strategic Corporate Member Digital Realty.
The purpose of DCSC is to form a unified approach towards ensuring safety and wellbeing of personnel in data center operations. The industry has seen a period of rapid growth adding urgency to the need for standardization of best practices, knowledge sharing and collaboration, and defining resources for training and development. The recognition of safety hazards associated with these complex, and sometimes multi-employer spaces has only emerged over the past 5-7 years. Implementing company-wide health and safety programs designed to mitigate risks has been challenging. The DCSC will provide advocacy for aligning health and safety regulations and addressing operational health and safety challenges in a consistent approach.
“Safety is central to CBRE’s values and a daily focus for our expert teams managing high-reliability and critical assets in data centers worldwide. We look forward to working collaboratively with incredible industry partners and actively contribute to the creation of new norms in Data Center operational safety practices.“
Christopher Dark, Global QHSE Director for CBRE’s Data Center Solutions business and member of the DCSC Steering Committee.
The members of the Data Center Safety Council are all leaders in the industry and well positioned to create collective global action and consistency for the industry as a whole. The DCSC invites its data center industry peers to join this mission as we continue to grow. DCSC is facilitated by Antea Group.
