Individual Safe Work Instructions Best Practices

Employers, unions, and workers in the K-12 public education sector are committed to workplace safety and the prevention of workplace violence. A vital part of violence prevention is ensuring that school districts develop, maintain, and communicate effective Individual Safe Work Instructions (ISWI). ISWIs provide specific and detailed guidance to workers on potential risks, and how to safely interact or work with students whose behaviour or care needs may pose an ongoing risk to workers.
