Voluntary Protection Programs (VPP)

Be a model for your industry!

Avoid routine OSHA inspection!

Benefit from lower than average worker injury rates at your workplace!

You can qualify for OSHA's elite program that recognizes the best employers and provides real relief from unexpected OSHA-scheduled inspections.

OSHA's VPP concept recognizes that compliance enforcement alone can never fully achieve the objectives of the Occupational Safety and Health Act. Good safety management programs that go beyond OSHA standards can protect workers more effectively than simple compliance. VPP participants are a select group of facilities that have designed and implemented outstanding health and safety programs that go beyond compliance with OSHA mandates.

  • Lower incidence rates.
  • Reduced lost workdays.
  • Decreased workers' compensation costs.

These are some of the benefits realized by OSHA's VPP participants.

It is not easy! It requires commitment! The payoff can be extraordinary!

Whether you are ready to be a VPP Demonstration site, or move up to Merit status, or attain the highest level, Star status, we can help you prepare your company and your workplaces, make an application that will succeed, and pass the rigorous onsite inspection.
