Why Are We Here?
• To learn about the university’s injury and illness prevention program (IIPP).
• Receive general safety guidelines.
• Explain what your responsibilities are for safety.
![Page 3: Stanford University General Health & Safety Training](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013101/5681408b550346895dac17ca/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Why?
• Stanford works hard to prevent accidents, but people do get injured at work:– Workplace injuries cost Stanford over $1million/year
![Page 4: Stanford University General Health & Safety Training](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013101/5681408b550346895dac17ca/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)

Reporting Hazards University Policy on Anti-reprisal
“Stanford university encourages employees and students to report health and safety hazards to their supervisor, manager, or EH&S.”
“Employees and students shall not be discharged or discriminated against in any manner for bona fide reporting of health and safety hazards to Stanford or to appropriate governmental agencies.”
(Reports may always be made anonymously)
![Page 9: Stanford University General Health & Safety Training](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013101/5681408b550346895dac17ca/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Reporting an Injury, Incident,or Exposure
• Discuss health and safety concerns with your advisor/supervisor.
• Fill out and sign Stanford SU-17 form.– Get forms from Risk Management.
• Report “near misses.”
• Seek medical attention for injuries.
![Page 10: Stanford University General Health & Safety Training](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013101/5681408b550346895dac17ca/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Medical Attention for Workplace Injuries
• Serious Injury (severe laceration requiring surgery, chemical burns, head trauma, compound fractures)
– Stanford Hospital Emergency Room
• Minor injury (sprained ankle, a few stitches)
– Alliance Occupational Medicine• 2737 Walsh Ave., Santa Clara

Identification of Hazards byInspecting the Workplace
• EH&S has checklists available.
• Departments “self inspect.”
• Management ensures implementation
• Keep records for 1 year.
• Correct the hazards identified.
![Page 12: Stanford University General Health & Safety Training](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013101/5681408b550346895dac17ca/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Correcting Hazards
• Correct it as soon as possible.• If you can’t correct it, ask a supervisor or
manager.• Are you still concerned?... call your Department
Safety Representative or EH&S. • Facilities can fix things and fund it if it is part of
their maintenance responsibilities.
![Page 13: Stanford University General Health & Safety Training](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013101/5681408b550346895dac17ca/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Keeping Records
• When you get training, make sure it gets recorded.
