A construction employer wants its IIPP to actually reduce injuries. Which system, required by §3203, most directly encourages workers to follow safe work practices?
Explanation
All four are required elements of an IIPP, so the question is which one is aimed at worker behaviour. Section 3203(a)(2) is the compliance element, and the standard names its acceptable means: recognition of employees who work safely, training and retraining, and disciplinary action. The communication element at (a)(3) moves information and invites hazard reports, but it does not itself secure compliance. The investigation procedure at (a)(5) looks backwards at an injury that has already happened. The inspection procedures at (a)(4) find the unsafe condition rather than govern what the worker does about it.
