OSHA is quick to scrutinize a business to determine whether the fault of injury lies with the employee or the employer. OSHA looks for two things when an accident occurs: If the business has a Safety Plan in place and whether it’s adequate enough to fully protect the company.

If discrepancies are found with an existing Safety Plan, or an employer does not have one in place, it could end up costing a business hundreds to thousands of dollars.

Every day, 12 people are killed on the job, and 9,000 others are injured. A Safety Plan is a written document that helps to protect employees from health and physical danger that could potentially harm or kill them. It designates all processes for determining health and physical danger, procedures to prevent accidents, and what to do when an accident occurs.

A quality Safety Plan protects your business in the case of an unfortunate accident.

When an injury or death occurs on a business’s premises, OSHA is quick to determine fault. OSHA will always consider at least two things when they investigate an accident: 1) If your business has a Safety Plan in place and 2) Whether the plan is compliant. If discrepancies are found with an existing Safety Plan, it could end up costing your business hundreds to thousands of dollars. This is why it's important to make sure that your business not only has a Safety Plan, but also that it’s compliant.

Labor law changes constantly at the state and federal level. It is nearly impossible to stay on top of all of this information. If your Employee Handbook contains policies that are inconsistent with the law, this leaves your company exposed to potential lawsuits and thousands in fees and fines.

A well maintained Employee Handbook is one of the single best defenses against unwarranted employee claims and EEOC issues. Claims with any legitimacy can cost up to $40,000.

An Employee Handbook is a document that helps your employees know and adhere to your company policies, while also helping your management to correctly apply the rules to all employees.

Here is how it works:

How it works: You will speak with an SHRP-CP about your business, industry, and the content required for your Custom Employee Handbook. Then, utilizing your existing Handbook, they will create a new one that is compliant.

Sexual harassment is a genuine threat in the workplace. It’s important to remember that even if an employee doesn’t intend to harass another employee, the perception of the employee that comments are directed towards matters. There are strict guidelines against sexual harassment, and following them can keep employees from making career-damaging mistakes.

This training satisfies the statutory requirements for education on sexual harassment as required by specific state laws. In doing so, it covers the importance of a harassment-free workplace, the legal definitions of harassment, employer obligations, the components of anti-harassment policies, abusive conduct or bullying, retaliation, liability and remedies for harassment under the law, and how to prevent harassment and discrimination in the workplace.

The experience modification rate (called the XMod) rewards companies who handle their claims well by lowering their premium, and it has the reverse effect when claims are poorly managed.

However, as much as 60% of the data used in the XMod calculations that determine an employer’s premium is incorrect. This means you may be paying a higher rate than you should be.

If you can improve your XMod, you can reduce your workers comp costs. That’s where XMod Review comes in.

What is it?
The XMod Review is an assessment that helps you optimize your experience modification rate on your workers’ compensation policy.

What does it cost?
The assessment is completely free to members.

If you choose to use this service, the cost is 3-6% of the premium. This is a small charge when you consider an average ROI of 600%!

Some Typical Results:
• Decrease in Claim Frequency Rate of 21%
• Decrease in Cost Per Claim of 51%
• 30% Reduction in Loss Ratio

What is the process?
You can request an XMod Review through your member portal or by contacting us directly. We’ll ask for some standard documentation regarding your XMod, then after careful evaluation, you’ll receive a proposal which details the savings that we can offer you with XMod Review.

We are all familiar with the public service announcements advising us to be prepared for emergencies. Take small steps to increase your disaster preparedness.

First, know your risks at home and at work. What industry do you work in? Are there chemical, fire, or other physical hazards? Where do you live and work and what are the earthquake, flood, wildfire, risks? Knowing your risks helps you identify necessary supplies, equipment, and procedures.

Make your workplace and home safe. Bolt down furniture and equipment. Secure items hung on walls and stored on shelves. Store hazardous chemicals in properly segregated containers. Prevent fires by maintaining good housekeeping.

Get emergency training. Know the procedures for evacuations, spill cleanup, earthquakes, and fire suppression. Be familiar with the alarm systems at work and home (silent, audible, strobes, speakers, etc.). Know where the nearest exits are and use them. Know where you should assemble outside the building to check in.

Make a home emergency plan and discuss with your family. Everyone should know how to communicate and where to meet in a disaster. Make special disaster plans for pets and family members with special needs along with schools and daycare facilities.

Build your disaster kit at home, work, and in the car. Begin with water and food. Add a first aid kit. Consider a radio or phone with phone lists. Add tools such as a flashlight, scissors, and knife. Add necessary medications, eyeglasses, comfortable shoes, warm clothes, and blankets.

Be trained in CPR and First Aid so that you can help others if they are hurt. Know how to use a fire extinguisher safely. Practice and drill emergency procedures so that you will be calm, capable, and prepared when disaster strikes.

The Department of Homeland Security defines an active shooter as “an individual actively engaged in killing or attempting to kill people in a confined and populated area.” These incidents usually involve firearms and randomly selected targets or victims. Anyone involved in an incident should call emergency 911 as soon as it is safe to do so. Active shooter events are usually over within 10-15 minutes (sometimes before law enforcement arrives), so know how to respond if the unthinkable happens.

Active shooters may be current or former workers, family or friends of co-workers, or complete strangers. While it is difficult to foresee a stranger’s actions, you can look for characteristics that a person may be planning a shooting incident. Report any of the following observations or uneasy, “gut” reactions to your supervisor, management, and/or human resources:

• Increased use of alcohol, drugs, and absenteeism.
• Decreased hygiene and appearance.
• Depression and/or social withdrawal.
• Disregard for work quality or company policy.
• Mood swings and overly emotional responses.
• Paranoid, suicidal, or doomsday behavior or discussions.
• Increased discussion of violent incidents and weapons/firearms.

Often, the best choice is to evacuate the active shooter area. For evacuations:

• Always know two exits and escape routes in every building you visit.
• Guide others to the escape route and prevent them from entering the shooting zone.
• Exit whether others follow you or not.
• Don’t attempt to move wounded people.
• Keep your hands visible at all times and follow police instructions.

If you can’t escape an active shooter scenario, find a place to hide out.

• Ideally stay in, or find an office with a door that you can lock and/or barricade.
• Stay out of sight of windows.
• Silence your cell phone, turn off radios, TVs, etc. and stay quiet.

If you can’t evacuate or hide, call 911 and talk to the dispatcher or leave the phone line open so they can listen and record events. If possible, describe the location of the shooting, the shooter, and the weapons. Remain calm, listen, and think about your next moves.

Only as a last resort, and if your life is in “imminent danger,” should you take action against the shooter. If you must take action, “aggressively and overwhelmingly” attack the shooter with improvised weapons. Throw things and yell at the shooter. Law enforcement recommends that you “commit to your actions,” so don’t hesitate or stop in mid-action.

When law enforcement arrives at an active shooter scene, their first priority will be to stop the shooter. They will go past wounded victims and may push people down to the ground in order to stop the violence. Listen to officer commands. Keep your hands visible, raised, with fingers spread wide. Don’t shout, grab, point, or make distracting noises during officer response.

Create an emergency action plan to respond to an active shooter.

• Gather emergency responder, hospital, management, and building contact names and phone numbers.
• Discuss how to alert employees about an incident.  Will you use a code word over the public address system, an all-call phone alert, texts, etc.?
• Procure supplies such as exit floor plans, first aid kits, staff rosters, flashlights, communication devices, etc.

Once you have your response procedures in place:

• Create a written plan.
• Train employees on the plan and how to react when gunshots are heard.
• Conduct an emergency drill around an active shooter scenario.
• Evaluate your drill success and adjust your plan and training as needed.

Active shooter situations can be random, with rapid and unpredictable events unfolding.  Thinking about and practicing the proper response now can boost your chance of survival through the event, and in the aftermath.

For more information, response planning guides, and training resources, go to the Department of Homeland Security website on Active Shooter Preparedness.

When contractors perform services at employer worksites, a detailed contract and contractor safety program protects the health and safety of both employees and contractors. The employer and the contractor share an obligation to communicate planned work activities, the hazards involved, and the contracted tasks, as well as the training, tools, and equipment that all employees will need.

Before agreeing to work with a contractor, review the following data that gives insight to their safety culture and performance:

• History of safety and environmental regulation violations.
• Injury and loss history.
• Total Recordable Incident Rate.
• Experience modification rate (ex-mod).
• Job and task hazard analysis procedures and results.
• Written safety programs and policies.

Ensure that you outline requirements in the work contract and in contractor manuals so there is a clearly communicated expectation of workplace safety. Topics to consider include:

• Company and contractor safety responsibility and emergency contact information.
• A description of hazardous areas, equipment, materials, and tasks at the worksite.
• Safety programs that govern the safe work practices for the contracted job.
• Equipment, tools, and supplies that the contractor or the employer need to provide.
• Personal protective equipment (PPE) required at the worksite and for job tasks.
• Training and certifications that contracted employees need prior to conducting work.
• Reporting requirements and procedures for injuries, illnesses, hazards, and safety concerns.
• The expectation for a drug and alcohol free workplace.

It is important that contractors match or exceed the safety culture and standards of the employer. General safe work practices to emphasize include:

• Lockout/Tagout procedures for equipment on-site.
• A list of permit-required and non-permit-required confined spaces on-site.
• Heat illness prevention procedures.
• Trenching and excavation procedures and the location of utilities.
• A list of chemicals used on-site and access to safety data sheets.
