What is Injury and Illness Prevention?
In accordance with Board Policy 6800, and Administrative Procedure 6800, and Title 8 CCR Section 3203 Injury/Illness Prevention Program Regulation, The Board of Trustees mandates that the San Bernardino Community College District shall establish an Injury and Illness Prevention Program in compliance with applicable OSHA regulations and state law. These procedures shall promote an active program to reduce and/or control safety and health risks.
This program outlines the proper policies, procedures, and responsibilities which apply to employees in their respective work environments. By identifying and correcting potential and/or existing hazards as they are discovered, the number of workplace injuries or illnesses can be kept to a minimum. A complete copy of the IIPP will be kept in a common location available to all employees to review. IIPP training is mandatory for each employee upon hiring, and a record of training completion will be maintained in their file.
