Your business no matter the size must have a written Illness and
Injury Prevention Plan. I f you have more than 9 employees you must have
this plan. OSHA writes violations constantly for companies that do not
comply with this regulation.
What is an IIPP? An IIPP lays the foundation of your company's safety
program it labels persons responsible for processing safety issues and
describes your accident investigation procedure. It is a must have if
you wish to protect your company's future.
The IIPP covers the following items:
 | Management commitment/assignment of responsibilities; |
| Safety communications system with employees; |
| System for assuring employee compliance with safe work practices;
|
| Scheduled inspections/evaluation system; |
| Accident investigation; |
| Procedures for correcting unsafe/ unhealthy conditions; |
| Safety and health training and instruction; and |
| Recordkeeping and documentation. |
Pacific Coast Safety & Training can prepare an IIPP specific to your
company and then train you and your employees on how to use it. Do not
get caught without this program it is the first thing an OSHA inspector
will ask for during a site visit. Call us today
