California Workplace Violence Prevention (CA)

Course overview

We've partnered with Polsinelli to create a course based on California's SB 553, which mandates employers create and provide training to their employees on a workplace violence prevention plan. This course helps employers meet the requirements, offering guidance on how to maintain a safe workplace and comply with Cal/OSHA's standards. California requires the workplace violence prevention training to provide specific information about the employer's workplace violence prevention plan, how to obtain a copy of the employer’s plan, and how to participate in development and implementation of the employer’s plan. This course remains editable and must be tailored to your specific workplace before deployment. Helpful notes are provided throughout the course to guide this customization. Disclaimer: This course has been approved by Polsinelli to address the requirements of California law. While you must customize some of the content to provide information specific to your workplace, any changes made to the set content may cause the course to no longer meet California's legal requirements.
