Guide managers, supervisors and workers through the six core elements of an injury and illness prevention program, from leadership to evaluation.
This comprehensive training teaches employers and safety professionals how to develop, implement, and maintain an effective Injury and Illness Prevention Program (I2P2 or IIPP) as required by OSHA and many state regulations. The program covers the core elements necessary to create a workplace culture that proactively identifies and controls hazards before injuries occur. Participants will learn the essential components of a successful I2P2 program including management leadership and employee participation, workplace hazard identification and assessment, hazard prevention and control measures, safety training and education, and program evaluation and improvement. The training emphasizes practical implementation strategies and demonstrates how effective I2P2 programs reduce workers' compensation costs while improving employee morale and productivity. Topics include establishing management commitment and accountability for safety, implementing systems for regular workplace inspections and hazard assessments, using the Hierarchy of Controls to eliminate or minimize hazards, developing job-specific safety procedures, encouraging worker participation and reporting of hazards, investigating incidents to prevent recurrence, maintaining required documentation and records, and conducting periodic program audits to ensure continuous improvement. This training provides the knowledge and tools needed to build a comprehensive safety program that meets regulatory requirements and creates a genuinely safer workplace.
Injury and illness prevention program training is aimed at managers, supervisors, safety coordinators and workers who help run a site's safety program. It applies in any industry, including manufacturing, warehousing and construction. Employers in states that mandate a written program, such as California, benefit most directly.
Federal OSHA does not require an injury and illness prevention program, but it recommends one through its Recommended Practices for Safety and Health Programs. Some states go further. California, for example, requires every employer to keep a written IIPP under Title 8, Section 3203 of the California Code of Regulations.
An effective injury and illness prevention program has six parts. Leaders commit resources and set expectations, and workers take part in decisions. The program finds and assesses hazards, then controls them. Ongoing training and regular evaluation keep the program improving as the workplace changes.
The hierarchy of controls ranks hazard fixes from most to least effective: elimination, substitution, engineering controls, administrative controls and PPE. An injury and illness prevention program uses it to pick the strongest practical fix for each hazard. PPE is the last line of defense. The 20-minute video is available in English, Spanish and French.
Yes, a working injury and illness prevention program usually lowers workers' compensation costs because fewer injuries mean fewer claims and less lost time. OSHA has estimated these programs can cut injuries by 15 to 35 percent at sites starting without one. Companies also tend to see better morale and productivity.
