The County strives to provide a safe working environment for you. It is your responsibility to learn the safety rules that apply to your job and report to your supervisor any conditions that you think may be unsafe. Your department maintains a description of all workplace hazardous materials to which you could be exposed. If you become aware of any unsafe condition, whether it is in a building, parking lot, or on County grounds, you must immediately report it to HR - Safety Division at (951) 955-3520. Review the Intranet only Board policy by clicking here.

 

If you are injured on the job you must report it to your supervisor immediately. Your supervisor will report the injury to the Injury Referral Hotline at (888) 826-7835. Timely reporting of your injury is an important part of the required safety program administered by the County. Per state law, if an injury is reported late, benefits can be delayed, and in some cases denied altogether. If you are unable to work because of a job-related injury or illness, you will need to file a claim for Workers’ Compensation. See the benefits section of this handbook for additional information or click here and you will be directed to the benefits workers' compensation page.
