Injury and Illness Prevention Program (IIPP):

In California every employer has a legal obligation to provide and maintain a safe and healthful workplace for employees, according to the California Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1973. As of 1991, a written, effective Injury and Illness Prevention Program (IIPP) is required for every California employer and consists of the following elements:

• Management commitment/assignment of responsibilities;
• Safety communications system with employees;
• System for assuring employee compliance with safe work practices;
• Scheduled site inspections;
• Accident investigations;
• Procedures for correcting unsafe/unhealthy conditions; job safety analysis
• Health and safety training and instruction; and
• Recordkeeping and documentation
• 300 Log reporting for high hazard occupational groups
