Overview:
The instructor has written over 130 plans for clients, handled OSHA reviews of plans, and can help you.
There are many reasons companies want a written safety plan:
- Their insurance company needs a copy of it
- The contractor they work for needs it
- OSHA wants to see it
- The city or state they work for needs it
- The federal agency they want to work for needs it
- They need to submit it with their bid
- They need it to pass an inspection, audit, or regulation
- They need it to be "certified" by a regulatory agency
- They know they will need it sooner or later
This is the program that will walk you through the points that go into a written plan and give you the tools you need to write your own.
Why you should attend: The current Federal OSHA administration is taking steps to require employers to create and enforce Injury and Illness Prevention Programs, what they refer to as I2P2.
Such plans reduce accidents and injuries, lower workers' compensation costs, not to mention comply with various state and now pending Federal safety laws. In California, failure to have written plans, (required for 20 years) are the leading basis for Cal/OSHA citations.
Safety plans can be written easily for your company to follow, engage your employees and demonstrate management support. This program will be a basic, nuts and bolts program leading participants through the process.
