The following chapter from the City of Los Angeles Safety Manual is
a draft.  It has been submitted so that others may utilize the
information in helping to meet the requirements of the Written
Injury and Illness Prevention Program required by Senate Bill 198
and the expanded General Industry Safety Order 3203.

                                                        Chapter 2






Management shall inaugurate and maintain an effective Injury and
Illness Prevention Program.  Supervisors, must ensure that all
employees are trained in the safe use of the materials and
equipment with which they are working, that they know what hazards
are present, and that they know how the hazards can be controlled
or eliminated.

Employees need to know and understand the following:

    They shall not be expected to undertake a job until they have
     received instructions on how to do it properly and have been
     authorized to perform that job.

    They shall not begin a job that appears to be unsafe or that
     uses hazardous materials without understanding their hazardous
     properties.

    Mechanical safeguards must be in place and be kept in place.

    They are expected to report all unsafe conditions encountered
     during work.

    Any injury or illness, no matter how slight, must be reported
     to the supervisor at once (see Chapter 5, Workers Compensation
     Notification, Chapter 6, Form Gen. 66 and Chapter 7, Form Gen.
     166).

In addition to the above, any safety rules such as the use of
personal protective equipment, shall be clearly explained and
enforced.

Supervisors must know how to train employees to perform their jobs
properly.  It is encouraged that supervisors take advantage of any
available supervisory training courses.  In addition, there are
specific training requirements in the Cal/OSHA standards which must
be met, such as those which pertain to first aid, confined space
entry and powered industrial trucks, including forklifts.  In
general, they deal with situations where the use of untrained or
improperly trained employees could cause hazardous situations to
develop and accidents to occur.

Particular attention must be given to new employees.  Immediately
upon arriving at work, new employees begin to learn things and form
attitudes about the workplace, their supervision, their job and
their fellow employees.  Unfortunately, without proper training,
they may be learning to take shortcuts and use unsafe procedures. 
If new employees are trained to do things the right way during the
first few hours and days, injuries and other losses can be avoided. 
Supervisors should stress that accidents can be prevented.  It
should be clearly explained that unsafe or unhealthful activities
in and around the workplace will not be condoned.

Attention must also be paid to your regular employees, including
the "old timers".  Old habits can be wrong habits.  An employee who
continues to perform in an unsafe manner is not working safely,
even if this has not yet resulted in an accident.

Cal/OSHA General Industry Safety Order 3203 requires each employer
to establish and maintain an Injury and Illness Prevention Program
to protect employees.  The Injury and Illness Prevention Program
must include:

    Training for employees in general safe work practices.

    Specific instruction for employees on hazards unique to each
     employee's work assignment.

    Scheduled periodic inspections of the workplace to identify
     unsafe conditions and work practices.  The employer is to
     correct unsafe conditions and work practices found as a result
     of the required inspection (see Chapter 12, Safety
     Inspections).

In addition to General Industry Safety Order 3203, there are
specific safety orders regarding Injury and Illness Prevention
Programs for the construction, tunnel, mining and petroleum
industries.

The General Industry Safety Order 3203 requirement that employers
"instruct employees in general safe work practices" refers to work
practices that are generally used by most employees throughout the
worksite.  Examples of general work practices are:  lifting
procedures, use of personal protective equipment, knowledge of
exits, first aid procedures, housekeeping practices, fire
protection procedures, evacuation plans, and handling flammables
and toxic chemicals.  Publications on several of these topics are
available from the State Division of Occupational Safety and Health
District Offices or Cal/OSHA Consultation Service Offices.

"Specific instruction with regard to hazards unique to any job
assignment" is interpreted to mean training on the hazards and safe
work practices specific to any individual employee's work
assignment.  Examples of specific instruction might include: 
training in the use of self-contained breathing apparatus, proper
procedure for locking or blocking-out machinery, proper use and
adjustment of machine guards, use of personal protective equipment,
and handling of hazardous substances.

"Scheduled periodic inspections" means inspections of the workplace
often enough to ensure that established safe work practices are
being followed and that any unsafe conditions or procedures are
identified and corrected as they develop.  How often inspections
are made should be determined according to such factors as: type
and magnitude of hazards involved, skill and experience of workers,
equipment or process changes, workplace injury and illness rates,
and requirements of safety and health standards.

General Industry Safety Order 3203 outlines the minimum acceptable
elements for an Injury and Illness Prevention Program.  This
standard was adopted because statistics and research show that many
occupational accidents and illnesses are preventable through an
effective education and training program and through periodic
inspections of the workplace to identify and correct unsafe
conditions and work practices.  For such a program to be most
effective, each employer should voluntarily expand these minimum
elements into a comprehensive Injury and Illness Prevention
Program.  Development and conscientious implementation of such a
program will reduce accidents, illnesses, and property damages, and
should result in lower costs and higher efficiency for the
employer.

Recently, Senate Bill 198 was adopted.  The Bill requires Cal/OSHA
to amend and expand upon the Injury and Illness Prevention Program. 
The amendments will be in General Safety Order 3203 and
Construction Safety Orders 1509 and must be implemented by January
1, 1991.  While the amendments still must pass the scrutiny of the
Cal/OSHA Standards Board and the Office of Administrative Law, at
this time, the proposed Section 3203 will reads as follows:


3203. Injury and Illness Prevention Program

      (a) Every employer shall establish, implement and maintain an
          effective Injury and Illness Prevention Program.  The
          Program shall be in writing, and shall, at a minimum,
          include the following elements, except as provided in
          subsection (b) of this section:

          (1)  The identity of the person or persons with
               authority and responsibility for implementing the
               Program.

          (2)  A system for ensuring that employees comply with
               safe and healthy work practices.  This may include
               employee incentives, training and retraining
               programs, and disciplinary actions.

          (3)  A system for communicating with employees in a form
               readily understood by all affected employees on
               matters relating to occupational safety and health,
               including provisions designed to encourage
               employees to inform the employer of hazards at the
               worksite without fear of reprisal.  Examples of
               communication methods include meetings, training
               programs, posting, written communications, a system
               of anonymous notification by employees about
               hazards, and health and safety committees.

          (4)  A system for identifying and evaluating work place
               hazards including scheduled periodic inspections to
               identify unsafe conditions and work practices. 
               Hazards shall be identified and evaluated:

               (A)  When the Program is first established;

               (B)  Whenever new substances, processes,
                    procedures, or equipment are introduced to the
                    workplace and represent a new occupational
                    safety and health hazard; and

               (C)  Whenever the employer receives notification of
                    a new or previously unrecognized hazard.

          (5)  Procedures to investigate injury, illness or
               serious exposure, including incidents where workers
               were not actually injured or exposed (near misses).

          (6)  Methods and procedures for correcting unsafe or
               unhealthy conditions and work practices in a timely
               manner based on the severity of the hazard which
               shall include procedures for safeguarding the
               employee where serious hazards or imminent hazards
               exist which cannot be immediately abated.

          (7)  An occupational health and safety training program
               to instruct employees in general safe and healthy
               work practices and to provide specific instruction
               with respect to hazards specific to each employee's
               job assignment, which includes the following
               elements:

               (A)  Training shall be provided for all employees
                    when the training program is first
                    established.

               (B)  Training shall be provided to all new
                    employees and to all employees given a new job
                    assignment.

               (C)  Employees shall be trained whenever new
                    substances, processes, procedures or equipment
                    are introduced to the workplace and represent
                    a new hazard and whenever the employer
                    receives notification of a new or previously
                    unrecognized hazard.

               (D)  Supervisors shall be knowledgeable of the
                    safety and health hazards to which employees
                    under their immediate direction and control
                    may be exposed.
