An IIPP annual review is a structured checkup of your written Injury and Illness Prevention Program and how it is being used in day to day work.
Instead of treating your IIPP as a one time document, the annual review helps you confirm that it still fits your current operations, equipment, and expectations for employees and supervisors.
During an annual review, you will typically:
Look at your written IIPP and related safety policies
Compare them to how work is actually being done on the floor or in the field
Decide what still works, what needs to be updated, and what might be missing
A short, focused review each year keeps your safety program accurate and easier to use.
A quick annual review at the start of the year can prevent bigger problems later on. It allows you to find and fix gaps before they show up as injuries, near misses, or questions from regulators and auditors.
With a 2026 review in place, you can:
Reduce the risk of injuries, downtime, and repeat incidents
Keep your safety program aligned with current tasks, equipment, and locations
Support supervisors with clear, current expectations and procedures
Show employees that safety is actively managed, not just a policy on paper
Be better prepared when customers, insurers, or regulators ask about your program

Starting 2026 with an updated IIPP sets the tone for a safer, more organized year.
A quick annual review at the start of the year can prevent bigger problems later on. It allows you to find and fix gaps before they show up as injuries, near misses, or questions from regulators and auditors.
