VPP BackgroundVPP Background
• In 1982, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) developed VPP to recognize and promote effective worksite-based safety and health management systems.
3
OSHA VPP ProgramsOSHA VPP Programs
• VPP compares YOUR Safety and Health Systems to the BEST S+H Management systems.
• Program Levels: – Star – Highest level of recognition
All VPP Elements/Sub-elements in Place Injury and illness rates below the national average.
– Merit – Working toward Star Some Elements/Sub-elements may not be in place Rates may be above national average
4
Why VPP in DoD?Why VPP in DoD?
• Preventable injuries and illnesses cost the DoD an estimated $10 to $21 billion annually, according to the National Safety Council.
• “DoD Components will pursue the following accident reduction and prevention initiatives: emphasizing safety in the workplace and hold leaders accountable for their safety programs; and achieving a 75 % accident reduction target by 2012 from a 2002 baseline in military and civilian injuries, private motor vehicle fatalities and aviation accidents. Secretary of Defense May 12, 2008
• Overall Industry VPP Star Site Experience:– Over 60% Reduction In Injuries And Illnesses– 20% Reduction In Worker’s Comp Costs– 864 Companies Saved An Est. $1 Billion since 1982

What is VPP?What is VPP?
• Compliance must be in place
• Focus on the Safety and Health Management System– Empower everyone to participate – Broad management/employee accountability for safety– Systematic continuous improvement (Plan-Do-Check-Act)
• Four Well Defined Program Elements – Management Leadership and Employee Involvement– Worksite Analysis– Hazard Prevention and Control– Safety and Health Training
7
Management LeadershipManagement Leadership
• Managers must provide visible leadership by:– Establishing clear lines of communication for
safety and health policies– Creating an environment that allows for
reasonable employee access to top site management
– Clearly defining responsibilities, goals, and objectives
– Setting example of safe and healthful behavior– Ensuring all workers, including contractors,
have high quality safety and health protection.
8
Employee InvolvementEmployee Involvement
• The site culture must enable meaningful employee involvement:– Participation in committees, audits,
investigations, work area self inspections, job hazard analyses, etc.
– Hazard reporting– Receive feedback - suggestions, hazard
reports, etc.– Safety training– Awareness of VPP site participation and
basic principles of VPP.

Contract WorkersContract Workers
• VPP site contractor programs must include a documented oversight and management system that ensures the contractor’s site employees are provided effective protection.
• VPP sites are expected to encourage contractors to develop effective safety and health program management systems.
11
Work Site Analysis Work Site Analysis
• Work Site Analysis includes:– Baseline Safety/Health Hazard Analyses– Ongoing Hazard Analysis– Pre-use Analysis (materials/processes)– Documenting and Use of Hazard Analyses– Routine Inspections / Self Inspections – Employee Hazard Reporting System– Industrial Hygiene– Accident/Incident Investigations– Trend Analysis.
12
Hazard Prevention and ControlHazard Prevention and Control
• Hazard Prevention and Control includes:– Access to qualified Safety/IH professionals– Control hierarchy (engineering, administrative,
work practice, Personal Protective Equipment (PPE))
– Preventive/predictive maintenance to keep equipment from becoming hazardous
– Access to medical/health professionals for physicals, treatment, first aid, CPR, etc.
– Emergency systems (response, training, drills, critiques)
– Controls are understood, followed, and enforced.
13
Safety and Health TrainingSafety and Health Training
• Safety and Health Training includes:– VPP concepts– Employee rights under OSHA– Responsibilities of managers, supervisors, workers– Recognizing hazardous conditions– Signs and symptoms of workplace related illnesses– Job specific training – for example:
Job hazard analysis / protective measures Work area inspection / self-inspection Mishap investigation.
– Site hazards and protective measures– Emergency evacuation procedures.
14
Characteristics of a VPP Star SiteCharacteristics of a VPP Star Site
• Look at Safety and Health in a different way– It’s not just the Safety Office – it’s all of us– It’s not meeting requirements - it’s eliminating hazards
• Leaders model safety every day• Workers are Involved
– Finding hazards – they know where they are– Fixing hazards – it’s everyone’s job– Making decisions – they know what works (and doesn’t)
• Union support• Continuous improvement mentality
“We don’t do it until we can do it safely.”
15
VPP Recognition ProcessVPP Recognition Process
• Baseline Assessment – How Much Is Already Done?• Establish Policies, Systems/Procedures, and
Commitments• Implement VPP Elements and Sub-elements (One
Year)• Evaluate Results and Initiate Improvements• Submit Application to OSHA• OSHA Onsite Evaluation• OSHA Recognition
– Star– Merit
• Sustainment– Continuous Improvement– Annual Report to OSHA
• OSHA Recertification Every 3 Years
16
VPP GAP Baseline Assessment Explained
VPP GAP Baseline Assessment Explained
• Four Elements - 81 Sub-Elements • Three Stages of Maturity
– Stage 1 = Decide and Develop (Plan)– Stage 2 = Implement and Execute (Do)– Stage 3 = Evaluate and Improve (Check - Act)
• MCLB Albany - 81 Assessment Points in Stage 1– Red = No Action Taken– Yellow = In Progress– Green = Complete
• Web Based Action Plan• Recommendations/Samples/Etc. for all Red/Yellow
17
Next StepsNext Steps
• Establish a Clear Goal– Target Date for Submitting Star Application
• Solidify Support and Involvement– Management – Union – Employees
• Create a Project Plan for Meeting the Goal– Use your Mentor and your Web Action Plan as Guides– Assign Action Areas/Items – Get It Out of the Safety
Office– Identify / Address Resource Needs– Use CX Resources at http://www.vppcx.org/
• Work the Plan– Progress Metrics and Briefings– Track Progress Using the Web Action Plan– Accountability for Assigned Actions
