Injury and Illness Prevention
South Bay Medical Center’s Culture of Safety
All injuries and all safety incidents are preventable: the goal is to be injury free.
All employees are accountable for working safely.
Prevention is more effective and sustainable than post-injury management.
Safety feedback and observation are everyone’s responsibility.
Employee involvement is critical.
Managers are responsible for ensuring that the systems, equipment, training and support allow employees
to work safely.
When alerted to an injury/illness, all managers must call the WPS pager @ 310-797-2409.

(Safety Data Sheets) and chemical inventory. You can access MSDSs by going to South Bay Policy
Manager and click on MSDS or use the link MSDS On Line.
EVS related chemical MSDSs are located in each EVS closet in the hospital.
Pursuant to GHS requirements, all employees at SBMC must be trained on the new label elements and
SDS format by December 1, 2013.
