When you need this document
You employ anyone in California (the workplace violence prevention plan is required for nearly all California employers), or an inspector, client, or prequal reviewer asked to see your written plan and incident log.
A workplace violence prevention plan and its violent incident log are what a Cal/OSHA inspector requests to confirm you meet Labor Code section 6401.9. The plan has to be specific to how and where your crews actually work, from occupied homes to roadside sites, and the violent incident log has to be maintained and retained for five years.
The regulations it is written to
- §California: Labor Code section 6401.9 (workplace violence prevention plan)
- §California: 8 CCR 3203 (the IIPP the plan coordinates with)
California requires both plans
Every California employer needs a written IIPP (8 CCR 3203) and a written workplace violence prevention plan (Labor Code section 6401.9). Labor Code 6401.9 lets the violence plan sit inside the IIPP or stand alongside it. They are separate documents and are priced separately.

▸Which regulations does the WVPP cite?
California: Labor Code section 6401.9 (workplace violence prevention plan); California: 8 CCR 3203 (the IIPP the plan coordinates with). Every citation is validated against a verified regulations table before delivery, never written from memory.

Reply to your delivery email and we revise the document free, within 24 hours and as many times as it takes, until your GC or prequal reviewer accepts it.
