Is your
Injury and Illness Prevention Program (IIPP) up to date? Or, do you even have one? If so, is it updated?
In California, every employer is required by law to provide a safe workplace for his or her employees. Labor Law Code/SB 228 Law 6401.7 went into effect January 1, 2004 and states that every employer shall establish, implement, and maintain an effective injury and Illness Prevention Program (IIPP).
Your Injury and Illness Prevention Program must be a written plan that includes, but is not limited to, the following elements:
ü Identification of the person or persons responsible for implementing the program
ü The employer’s system for identifying and evaluating workplace hazards
ü The employer’s methods and procedures for correcting unsafe or unhealthy conditions and work practices in a timely manner
ü An occupational health and safety training program designed to instruct employees in general safe and healthy work practices
ü The employer’s system, for communicating with employees on occupational safety matters
ü The employer’s system for ensuring that employees comply with safe and healthy work practices
If you do not have an IIPP in place, you could be fined up to $7,000.00 from OSHA… and that’s only the beginning of your problems! You can also receive additional fines from OSHA for not having safety plans addressing regulations associated with your garage business.
