Code Number: 902.7
The District is committed to maintaining a safe and hazard-free workplace and makes every effort to comply with applicable state and federal Occupational Safety and Health laws. To further those efforts, the District has established a workplace safety program to educate employees about their mutual responsibility to maintain safe and healthy working conditions. Employees must comply with workplace safety policies and procedures and report any unsafe condition or hazard, as well as any workplace illness or injury, to the appropriate supervisor or other designated District representative in a timely manner.
Form 902.7-E is available for reporting workplace safety concerns, but the use of the form is not required. The form is available online or may be requested from any building administrator. Employees are encouraged to make timely reports to a building administrator, supervisor, or other designated District representative, in any reasonable manner available to them.
Employees will not be retaliated against for reporting workplace safety concerns or for reporting a workplace illness or injury.
