Common use of EMPLOYEE SAFETY AND PROTECTION Clause in Contracts

EMPLOYEE SAFETY AND PROTECTION. The District is responsible for providing a safe and healthful working environment, an accident prevention program, training programs, and a system for reporting accidents that will satisfy state and federal statistical requirements. The BEA and employees will cooperate in efforts to eliminate accidents, studying and employing safety standards, offering safety suggestions which may contribute to a safer work environment, using proper safety devices and protective equipment, properly caring for all personal protective equipment, and promptly reporting all injuries and occupational illnesses, regardless of severity. No employee shall be required to remain in any building or area which has been evacuated because of potentially hazardous conditions. In the event an employee is threatened with bodily harm or is assaulted in the scope of his/her employment, the District will reimburse the employee for up to $500 in out-of-pocket expenses for counseling services received as a result of the threat or assault, provided that such threat or assault is reported to the employee’s principal/supervisor within three (3) workdays of the event. An employee will not be eligible for reimbursement under this section if it is found that the employee precipitated the threat or assault. Employees will not be required to provide instruction, assessment, conferences, and/or services to students in family homes. A request for volunteers to provide such services must be made in conjunction with BEA in a manner which ensures the employee’s right to decline. Should an employee agree to a home assignment, parameters for the work will be established with the employee, supervisor, Human Resources, and XXX prior to the first home visit. Student-Related Safety Training Personnel assigned to work with a student whose IEP identifies emotional and/or behavioral goals or a student with identified emotional and/or behavioral needs that indicate the student may be a safety risk may request training specific to these circumstances. Such requests will be submitted in writing to the employee’s principal or program supervisor who will respond in writing in a timely manner. In the event a request is denied, a written explanation for the denial will be provided.
