Infectious Disease IIPP Addendum – Spanish

California employers are required to establish and implement an Injury and Illness Prevention Program (IIPP) to protect employees from workplace hazards, including infectious diseases.

If it is deemed that COVID-19 is a potential workplace hazard, infection control measures must be implemented, including applicable and relevant recommendations from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). For most California workplaces, adopting changes to their IIPP is mandatory since COVID-19 is widespread in the community.
