A brief description of the institution’s workplace health and safety initiatives:
Santa Clara University (SCU) has developed an Injury and Illness Prevention Program (IIPP) to comply with the California Occupational Safety and Health Administration’s (Cal-OSHA’s) General Industry Safety Order (GISO): CCR Title 8, Section 3203, “Injury and Illness Prevention Program”. The regulation requires the development of a program to prevent accidents and injuries in the workplace. The purpose of this program is to establish a procedure that will help ensure the health and safety of SCU employees. This program also provides a process for reporting injuries, illnesses and incidents if they occur and the necessary steps for preventing reoccurrences. A primary focus of our program is to identify potential hazards on campus before an injury/accident occurs and assess their risk and implement control measures as necessary. All SCU employees are trained on this process as new hires. This includes how to prevent unsafe conditions, conducting workplace inspections, how to report accidents/injuries/near misses, supervisor and employee responsibilities, accident investigation, etc. All new employees are also trained on our campus sustainability efforts and how they can support this initiative in the areas of waste minimization and energy conservation.
