Discussion and possible action on any and all matters regarding a PEPP Program agreement with the Arizona Division of Occupational Safety and Health, for a 3-year consulting agreement with the City of San Luis.  (Monica Castro, Director of Finance)

The Public Entity Partnership Program (PEPP)managed by Arizona Division of Occupational Safety and Health (ADOSH) consists of a 3-year agreement with the City of San Luis, which can be canceled at any time with a 30-day notice requirement.  The program consists of quarterly ADOSH site visits to our municipality and will, in turn, make a recommendation on corrections or improvements within our safety and health processes.  ADOSH will work with the city on improving our current safety and health processes as well as assisting with needed safety and health trainings for the City of San Luis personnel.  These program services are at no cost to the city.   The objective of the agreement is to provide a safe and healthy work environment for employees through site visits and training provided by ADOSH.   (For more details, please see pages 3 and 4 of the attached  agreement for the list of goals, the strategies to achieve each goal, and the measurements and outcomes to determine whether the goals are achieved).

ADOSH Representatives provided a presentation on the PEPP Program to City of San Luis Management.  All Department Heads unanimously agree that this program is very beneficial for our City and our personnel.
