Under the California Occupational Safety and Health Act, every California employer has a duty to create a written, effective Injury and Illness Prevention Program (IIPP). A compliant IIPP must be a written document that includes:
- A person (or persons) with authority and responsibility for implementing the Program is identified
- A system for ensuring employees comply with safe and health work practices.
- A system for communicating with employees in a form readily understandable by all affected.
- Procedures for identifying and evaluating work place hazards.
- And more…
Failure to comply with this stipulation of Cal/OSHA can result in substantial fines and put employers at risk of lawsuits.
