It is Risk Management’s mission to provide risk prevention and mitigation services to the District, aimed at reducing conditions or practices which may expose the District to human, environmental, or financial loss.  Risk Management is responsible for the administration of the District's self-insured and purchased insurance programs along with occupational health and safety. These programs include property and liability claims, workers' compensation, contracts, insurance, safety and ergonomic studies of employees' work environments.

• Use proper step stool or ladder to reach overhead. Don't stand on chairs, furniture, or boxes. It's not worth a fractured bone!
• Watch where you step - uneven surfaces, or small items (rocks, pencils, etc.) can cause you to fall and sustain injuries.
• Use handrails when going up or down stairs; Don't overload your arms with books, supplies, or equipment when using stairs.
• Pay attention to the job you are doing. Be cautious and careful.
• When lifting or carrying loads, care should be exercised to avoid overexertion and straing. Too heavy? Ask for Help!
• Clean up spills immediately.
• Always keep aisles and passageways clear and unobstructed.
• Keep desk drawer and file cabinet drawers closed when they are not in use. Open one drawer at a time.
• Wear proper shoes; Closed toe and closed heel are best!

The District is self-insured in Workers' Compensation - every dollar spent on injuries comes directly out of the District's General Fund. If everyone adheres to the suggestions above, we can dramatically reduce injuries and costs.

Potential Facilities for Independent Study Physical Education (ISPE)

It is up to the designated person at each site to approve each student’s request. A student may not participate in ISPE before completing all paperwork including an appropriately signed release and obtaining a certificate of insurance from the organization that meets CVUSD requirements.

Each student should discuss any ISPE request with the designated ISPE site representative before joining a facility.

It is the student’s responsibility to make sure that his/her facility has a current, valid certificate of insurance, listing Conejo Valley USD as an additional insured.  If the certificate expires during the year, a new one must be obtained prior to receiving additional hours from that organization. A facility with an expired certificate of insurance will no longer be valid for hours without a new certificate of insurance.
