520 3  The Injury and Illness Prevention Program (IIPP) 
       requirement has been the most frequently cited standard in
       California workplace health and safety inspections almost 
       every year since it became effective in July 1991. Every 
       workplace safety inspection must assess compliance with 
       the IIPP. This report presents the results of an 
       evaluation of the IIPP's effects on worker injuries in 
       California and should inform policy both in California and
       in the federal Occupational Safety and Health 
       Administration (OSHA) program, which has made the adoption
       of a similar national requirement a top priority. Using 
       data from the Workers' Compensation Information System, 
       OSHA Data Initiative statistics, and Workers' Compensation
       Insurance Rating Bureau of California reports on medical 
       and indemnity claims from single-establishment firms, the 
       evaluation team analyzed the impact of citations for 
       violations of the IIPP on safety performance by (1) using 
       the number of citations as a measure of effectiveness and 
       (2) assessing the number of establishments that were cited
       for noncompliance and then came into compliance. They 
       found that enforcement of the IIPP appears to prevent 
       injuries only when inspectors cite firms for violations of
       specific subsections of that standard. Eighty percent of 
       the citations of the IIPP by the California Division of 
       Occupational Safety and Health program are for only a 
       different section, the one that requires employers to have
       a written IIPP. The specific subsections refer to the 
       provisions that mandate surveying and fixing hazards, 
       investigating the causes of injuries, and training 
       employees to work safely. Because about 25 percent of all 
       inspections cite the IIPP, citations of the specific 
       subsections occur in about 5 percent of all inspections. 
       In those inspections, the total recordable injury rate 
       falls by more than 20 percent in the two years following 
       the inspection.
