The International Association of Refrigerated Warehouses (IARW) has published the Guide to Injury and Illness Prevention Programs. Developed by the IARW Safety Committee, the new reference guide details employee safety requirements by state and also can be used to develop corporate safety programs.
“This important industry resource is intended to help cold chain industry companies understand requirements for state-run injury and illness prevention programs; workers' compensation premiums, which list possible premium discounts based on various state requirements; and state drug-free workplace polices and drug testing requirements,” says the guide’s co-author Jim Marrella, President of J.C. Marrella & Associates, LLC and the Vice Chairman of the IARW Safety Committee.
