SAFETY
Accident Prevention Program (APP)
APP Creation and/or Implementation
All Washington employers are required by law to maintain a written Accident Prevention Program (APP). Beyond compliance, your APP is the cornerstone of a safe workplace—identifying hazards, setting safety expectations, and providing employees with clear guidance on how to work safely.
ICM helps create and implement APPs that meet OSHA and DOSH standards while fitting the unique needs of your business. More >
On-Site Services
Walk-through Consultation
The walk-through process is a comprehensive safety assessment that will help to ensure that your company is prepared for an OSHA or DOSH inspection. The walk-through consultation is a non-disruptive process which allows your employees to perform their regular jobs, while we conduct our evaluation. We will tour your entire facility and identify deficiencies that require correction or improvements that can be made to create a safer work environment. At the end of the walk-through, we will provide a typed report with pictures detailing the deficiencies and the required corrective actions.
Safety-On-Site Services
Our Safety On Site (SOS) services help to keep your facility in compliance with state and federal regulations. SOS services include our comprehensive safety walk-through consultation, attendance of either a safety committee or safety meeting at the time of walk-through, and a review of your company safety program. We also examine the implementation of your safety policies and procedures for compliance. SOS visits can be scheduled monthly, bi-monthly, quarterly, or annually – as appropriate for your business. There are no cancellation or rescheduling fees.

Appealing Citations
We can assist you in appealing citations for safety violations, which can lessen or avoid the associated fines and/or penalties. We will review the citation and supporting evidence to determine the best course of action to correct the violations and to appeal the citation. Our team of safety experts will then develop an appeal response to be submitted to OSHA or DOSH. We may also attend the appeal hearing at the employer’s request for an additional fee.
