This model program has been prepared for use by employers in industries which have been determined by Cal/OSHA to historically utilize intermittent or seasonal workers. Intermittent or seasonal employment refers to controlling, directing, or directly supervising any worker other than permanent workers. You are not required to use this program. However, any employer in an industry which has been determined by Cal/OSHA as historically utilizing intermittent or seasonal workers and who adopts and implements this model program in good faith shall be deemed in compliance with IIP Program requirements.
Proper use of this model program requires the IIP Program administrator for your establishment to carefully review the requirements for each of the eight IIP Program elements found in this model program, fill in the appropriate blank spaces and check those items that are applicable to your workplace. The recordkeeping section requires that the IIP Program administrator select and implement the category appropriate for your establishment. Sample forms for hazard assessment and correction, accident/exposure investigation, and employee training and instruction are provided with this model program.
This model program must be maintained by the employer in order to be effective.

work practices; and
COMMUNICATION
All managers and supervisors are responsible for communicating with all permanent and intermittent workers about occupational safety and health in a form readily understandable by all workers. Our communication system encourages all workers to inform their managers and supervisors about workplace hazards without fear of reprisal.
Upon hiring, management will identify any intermittent workers with special communication needs. Management will ensure that such a worker understands the safety and health requirements before being assigned to duties exposing them to workplace hazards.
Our communication system includes one or more of the following checked items:
- When we initially established our IIP Program;
- When new substances, processes, procedures or equipment which present potential new hazards are introduced into our workplace;
- When new, previously unidentified hazards are recognized;
- When occupational injuries and illnesses occur;
- When we hire and/or reassign permanent or intermittent workers to processes, operations, or tasks for which a hazard evaluation has not been previously conducted; and
- Whenever workplace conditions warrant an inspection.
Periodic inspections consist of identification and evaluation of workplace hazards utilizing applicable sections of the attached Hazard Assessment Checklist and any other effective methods to identify and evaluate workplace hazards.ACCIDENT/EXPOSURE INVESTIGATIONS
Procedures for investigating workplace accidents and hazardous substance exposures include:
- Interviewing injured workers and witnesses;
- Examining the workplace for factors associated with the accident/exposure;
- Determining the cause of the accident/exposure;
- Taking corrective action to prevent the accident/exposure from reoccurring; and
- Recording the findings and corrective actions taken.
HAZARD CORRECTION
Unsafe or unhealthy work conditions, practices or procedures shall be corrected in a timely manner based on the severity of the hazards. Hazards shall be corrected according to the following procedures:
- When observed or discovered;
- When an imminent hazard exists which cannot be immediately abated without endangering employee(s) and/or property, we will remove all exposed workers from the area except those necessary to correct the existing condition. Workers necessary to correct the hazardous condition shall be provided with the necessary protection
TRAINING AND INSTRUCTION
All permanent and intermittent workers, including managers and supervisors, shall have training and instruction on general and job-specific safety and health practices. Training and instruction can be provided through a brief on-site safety meeting. Any training and instruction shall be provided as follows:
- When the IIP Program is first established;
- To all new employees, except for those in construction who are provided training through a Cal/OSHA approved construction industry occupational safety and health training program;
- To all employees given new job assignments for which training has not been previously provided;
- Whenever new substances, processes, procedures or equipment are introduced to the workplace and represent a new hazard;
- Whenever the employer is made aware of a new or previously unrecognized hazard;
- To supervisors to familiarize them with the safety and health hazards to which workers under their immediate direction and control may be exposed; and
- To all employees with respect to hazards specific to each employee's job assignment.
Workplace safety and health training practices for all industries include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Explanation of the employer's IIP Program, emergency action plan and fire prevention plan, and measures for reporting any unsafe conditions, work practices, and injuries.
- Use of appropriate clothing, including gloves, footwear, and personal protective equipment.
