INJURY AND ILLNESS PREVENTION PROGRAM (IIPP)
Cal. Code Regs, tit. 8 §3203(a)(2) (2009) - A crane operator failed to “float the load” prior to hoisting a container, which resulted in a serious injury to an employee. This constituted a violation of the IIPP safety order.

Employer did not effectively enforce its safety program. Because Employer failed to satisfy all five elements, it did not establish the independent employee action defense.
