OSHA I2P2 Standard - Injury and Illness Prevention Program

OSHA is considering all input in drafting the proposed rule but has stated that an I2P2 rule would include the following elements:

• Management duties (including items such as establishing a policy, setting goals, planning and allocating resources, and assigning and communicating roles and responsibilities)
• Employee participation (including items such as involving employees in establishing, maintaining and evaluating the program, employee access to safety and health information, and employee role in incident investigations)
• Hazard identification and assessment (including items such as what hazards must be identified, information gathering, workplace inspections, incident investigations, hazards associated with changes in the workplace, emergency hazards, hazard assessment and prioritization, and hazard identification tools)
• Hazard prevention and control (including items such as what hazards must be controlled, hazard control priorities, and the effectiveness of the controls)
• Education and training (including items such as content of training, relationship to other OSHA training requirements, and periodic training)
• Program evaluation and improvement (including items such as monitoring performance, correcting program deficiencies, and improving program performance).”

How will KPA’s safety program help meet compliance with an I2P2 standard?

KPA’s Safety programs are designed as a collaborative effort with your management team.  We use guidance from the ANSI Z10 Occupational Safety and Health Management System standard and the California Injury and Illness Prevention Program regulations to draft a program that management can easily implement.
