You Downloaded a Template. Cal/OSHA Doesn't Care.
Build your site-specific workplace violence prevention plan, track incidents, manage training records, and stay audit-ready year after year. Free to start.
We're onboarding early customers now.
You thought you were done. You're not.
Your template isn't site-specific.
Cal/OSHA is rejecting generic, copy-paste workplace violence prevention plans. A downloaded template with your company name filled in doesn't meet the SB 553 requirement for site-specific hazard identification, named responsible parties, and procedures tailored to your actual workplace.
Your annual review is overdue.
SB 553 requires you to review and update your plan at least once a year — and again after any incident. Templates don't remind you when that obligation hits. If your plan has been sitting in a folder since 2024, your review was due in 2025.
Your records won't survive an inspection.
Cal/OSHA can request your incident log, training records, and hazard assessments going back five years. Can you produce them in minutes? If your documentation lives in spreadsheets, email threads, and filing cabinets, an inspection will expose the gaps.
$0 to $0 per serious violation.
Up to $0 for willful non-compliance.
Any employee can file a Cal/OSHA complaint and trigger an inspection. You won't see it coming.
SB 553 compliance isn't a document. It's a program.
Templates give you a starting point. But SB 553 demands ongoing hazard assessment, incident logging, training records, and annual plan reviews — none of which a PDF can do for you. Compliance Shield is the compliance program your template was never designed to be. It generates your site-specific plan, tracks your obligations, and keeps you audit-ready every day of the year.
Compliant in under an hour. Audit-ready from that day forward.
Answer guided questions about your workplace.
Tell us about your business — your locations, your hazards, your team structure. No legal expertise required. The questionnaire walks you through exactly what Cal/OSHA expects in a site-specific plan.
Get your site-specific plan — not a template with blanks.
Your answers generate a workplace violence prevention plan written for your business. Named responsible parties, identified hazards, tailored procedures. Ready to adopt and share with employees.
Track incidents and training in one place.
Log workplace violence incidents with every field Cal/OSHA requires. Record employee training completion with dates. Everything is stored, organized, and retained for the required five years.
Stay compliant year after year.
Get reminded before your annual review is due. Get alerted when you need to update your plan after an incident. When the permanent Cal/OSHA standard arrives in late 2026, your plan will evolve with the regulation.

Common questions
Your next Cal/OSHA inspection isn't scheduled. It's triggered.
Any employee can file a complaint and bring an inspector to your door. When that happens, your plan, your incident log, your training records, and your annual review documentation all need to be current and accessible. Don't wait for that day to find out whether your template holds up.
