SUBJECT: Employment Not Covered by Social Security

Cerritos Community College District is required to provide you this notice, Form SSA-

1945, to read and sign at the beginning of your employment with our organization. We

are required to do so under federal law, Section 419(c) of Public Law 108-203, the Social

Security Protection Act of 2004.

This notice must be provided to you because you are serving in a job or position, in which

you as employee and Cerritos Community College District as employer will not be

contributing to Social Security on your behalf.

You must do the following (See Reverse Side):

• Read the notice

• Sign the notice

• Return the notice to Human Resources

What is the purpose of the notice?

The purpose of the notice is to inform you about how Social Security law may impact

public employees who work in positions not covered by Social Security. This can be a

complicated issue, so we encourage you to seek out additional information to determine

whether the laws mentioned in the notice pertain to you by doing the following:

• Check the Social Security website at www.socialsecurity.gov.

• Employees in the PARS Plan can obtain further information on this plan by

contacting PARS at www.parsinfo.org or (800) 540-6369.

• Neither STRS, PARS nor Cerritos Community College District provides tax,

accounting, or legal advice. You should see your tax consultant, accountant or

attorney for advice.

Why will I not be in Social Security?

Not all employees working in public employment participate in Social Security through

such employment. Instead of participating in Social Security academic employees

participate in either the State Teachers’ Retirement System (STRS) or the Public Agency

Retirement Services (PARS) Plan. Full-time employees participate in STRS. Temporary

part-time and/or substitute hourly employees have the option to voluntarily elect into

STRS or if not electing STRS such employees participate in the PARS Plan. Full-time

long-term substitute employees also have the option to elect into STRS and if not electing

STRS such employees participate in PARS except upon rendering 100 full days of service

in a school year such employees are required to become members of STRS. Part-time

hourly employees are also required to become members of STRS upon rendering 60 or

more hours of service in a pay period.

Statement Concerning Your Employment in a Job

Not Covered by Social Security

mployee Name ______________________________ Employee ID # ______________

mployer Name Cerritos Community College District Employer ID#

95-6005521

our earnings from this job are not covered under Social Security. When you retire, or if you

become disabled, you may receive a pension based on earnings from this job. If you do, and

you are also entitled to a benefit from Social Security based on either your own work or the work

of your husband or wife, or former husband or wife, your pension may affect the amount of the

Social Security benefit you receive. Your Medicare benefits, however, will not be affected.

Under the Social Security law, there are two ways your Social Security benefit amount may be

affected.

indfall Elimination Provision

Under the Windfall Elimination Provision, your Social Security retirement or disability benefit is

figured using a modified formula when you are also entitled to a pension from a job where you

did not pay Social Security tax. As a result, you will receive a lower Social Security benefit than

if you were not entitled to a pension from this job. For example, if you are age 62 in 2005, the

maximum monthly reduction in your Social Security benefit as a result of this provision is

$313.50. This amount is updated annually. This provision reduces, but does not totally

eliminate, your Social Security benefit. For additional information, please refer to the Social

Security publication, “Windfall Elimination Provision.”

Government Pension Offset Provision

Under the Government Pension Offset Provision, any Social Security spouse or widow(er)

benefit to which you become entitled will be offset if you also receive a Federal, State or local

government pension based on work where you did not pay Social Security tax. The offset

reduces the amount of your Social Security spouse or widow(er) benefit by two-thirds of the

amount of your pension.

For

example, if you get a monthly pension of $600 based on earnings that are not covered

under Social Security, two-thirds of that amount, $400, is used to offset your Social Security

spouse or widow(er) benefit. If you are eligible for a $500 widow(er) benefit, you will receive

$100 per month from Social Security, $500 - $400 = $100. Even if your pension is high enough

to totally offset your spouse or widow(er) Social Security benefit, you are still eligible for

Medicare at age 65. For additional information, please refer to the Social Security publication,

“Government Pension Offset.”

BOARD POLICY EXCERPTS

Board Policy 3410: Nondiscrimination

The District is committed to equal opportunity in educational programs, employment, and all access to

institutional programs and activities.

The District, and each individual who represents the District, shall provide access to its services, classes, and

programs without regard to national origin, religion, age, gender, gender identity, gender expression, race or

ethnicity, color, medical condition, genetic information, ancestry, sexual orientation, marital status, physical or

mental disability, pregnancy, or because he or she is perceived to have one or more of the foregoing

characteristics, or based on association with a person or group with one or more of these actual or perceived

characteristics.

The President/Superintendent shall establish administrative procedures that ensure all members of the College

community can present complaints regarding alleged violations of this policy and have their complaints heard in

accordance with the Title 5 regulations and those of other agencies that administer state and federal laws

regarding nondiscrimination.

Board Policy 3430: Prohibition of Harassment

All forms of harassment are contrary to basic standards of conduct between individuals and are prohibited by

state and federal law, as well as this policy, and will not be tolerated. The District is committed to providing an

academic and work environment that respects the dignity of individuals and groups. The District shall be free of

sexual harassment and all forms of sexual intimidation and exploitation including acts of sexual violence.

The District seeks to foster an environment in which all employees and students feel free to report incidents of

harassment without fear of retaliation or reprisal. Therefore, the District also strictly prohibits retaliation against

any individual for filing a complaint of harassment or for participating in a harassment investigation. Such conduct

is illegal and constitutes a violation of this policy.

Any student or employee who believes that he or she has been harassed or retaliated against in violation of this

policy should immediately report such incidents by following the procedures described in AP 3435 titled

and retaliation that come to their attention.

representatives from the following:

• Administration

• Maintenance/Operations

• Students

• Academic Staff

• Classified Staff

• Safety and Security/Campus Police

• Faculty

• Expert Consultants

The Safety Committee will ensure that the following requirements are met:

a. The committee meets regularly, but not less than quarterly.

b. Minutes or written records are prepared for each meeting showing the safety and

health issues discussed. These records shall be made available to all affected

employees through the use of postings, newsletters, or other appropriate written

Page 7

materials. Records of the meetings will be kept on file and be accessible via the

www.cerritos.edu website for at least 5 years.

c. Reports of safety inspections, investigations of occupational accidents, and causes of

any incident resulting in injury, illness, or exposure to hazardous substances are

reviewed. Where necessary or appropriate, the committee will submit suggestions to

management for the prevention of future incidents.

4. ANONYMOUS NOTIFICATIONS. Notifications can be made in open forums or

training sessions, as well as through inter-departmental mail sent to management,

supervisors, union representatives, or Human Resources. Site Managers will submit all

anonymous notifications to the Safety committee.

5. MISCELLANEOUS. When appropriate, the District may use written communications

such as inter-District memos, electronic media, envelope stuffers, newsletters, and workplace

postings to supplement the previously described systems and further communicate to

employees matters relating to workplace safety and health.

EVALUATION, INVESTIGATION and CORRECTION OF WORKPLACE HAZARDS

A major component in the effectiveness of the Injury and Illness Prevention Program depends on

the ability to properly identify, evaluate, and correct workplace hazards. The main system for

identifying and evaluating workplace hazards will be ongoing evaluations, inspections, and meetings.

The purpose of these inspections and meetings will be to identify and correct unsafe conditions and

work practices.

Workplace inspections will be scheduled and can be conducted on an as needed basis using the

following criteria:

• An initial inspection when the program is first established;

• An inspection of affected areas whenever a new substance, process, procedure, or piece of

equipment that potentially presents a new occupational safety and/or health hazard is

introduced to the workplace;

• An inspection of affected areas whenever the management is made aware of a new or

previously unrecognized hazard; and

• When occupational illnesses and injuries occur, the IIPP Site Coordinator or designee will

conduct the investigation.

1. ONGOING INSPECTIONS. The annual workplace inspection is an important part of

the overall inspection program. Site Managers are responsible for ensuring safety

inspections are conducted per schedule. These inspections will be conducted with the

following considerations:

Page 8

a. The IIPP Site Coordinator in conjunction with the Site Manager will designate

management personnel conducting the inspections.

b. Inspections may be accomplished using check-off forms or other means of

documentation.

c. Copies of the completed check-off forms or other documents will be distributed as

follows:

• IIPP Site Coordinator

• Site Manager

• Safety Committee

2. ANNUAL INSPECTIONS. The District will use outside safety consultants to

supplement the in-house inspection program. Inspections by outside safety consultants will

be conducted annually. The party conducting the professional inspections must have

professional qualifications and safety expertise, e.g., Certified Safety Professional (CSP), a

professional member of the American Society of Safety Engineers (ASSE), or a registered

Professional Engineer (PE) in safety with demonstrated experience at educational

institutions and must carry liability insurance. Copies of consultant’s inspection reports will

be maintained at least 5 years at the District’s Business Office.

3. SAFETY ACTIVITIES. Job Safety Analysis (JSA), employee safety training, or issue

specific assessments (e.g., department ergonomic studies) may be used in lieu of or to

supplement the scheduled workplace inspections.

4. ACCIDENT INVESTIGATIONS. The injured employee’s immediate manager will

conduct the accident investigations to identify and correct unsafe conditions and practices.

These investigations will be conducted for all work-related injuries and illnesses resulting in

employees being unable to work.

5. CORRECTIONS OF UNSAFE OR UNHEALTHFUL CONDITIONS. Unsafe or

unhealthy work conditions, practices, or procedures shall be corrected in a timely manner

based on the severity of the hazards. Hazards shall be corrected according to the following

criteria:

a. When observed or discovered.

b. When an imminent hazard exists that cannot be immediately abated without

endangering employee(s) and/or property, all exposed employees, except those

properly trained or qualified to correct the existing condition, will be evacuated from

the area impacted.

c. Following an accident investigation or hazard assessment (e.g., JSA) when unsafe

acts or conditions are identified.

Page 9

d. When evidence of repeated unhealthful situation is documented and reported in

specific areas.

All such actions taken to correct hazards and corresponding dates of completion shall be

documented on the appropriate forms. The responsible Administrators, Deans, Directors,

and Managers shall be notified of unsafe conditions and corrective action recommended.

EMPLOYEE TRAINING

The IIPP District Coordinator and the IIPP Site Coordinators units will implement and maintain an

Occupational Safety and Health Training Program for their respective employees. The training

program is intended to train and instruct employees in general safety and health work practices, and

to provide instruction with regard to hazards specific or unique to each employee’s job.

The IIPP Site Coordinators shall ensure that all Site Managers are knowledgeable of the safety and

health hazards to which employees under their immediate direction and control may be exposed.

Employee training may include the following elements:

1. All employees will receive training and instruction when the Injury and Illness Prevention

Program is first established and when modifications and revisions are completed. All

employees will receive information on the IIPP at the time of hire.

2. All affected or potentially affected employees will receive appropriate safety training prior to

assignments, when potentially exposed to new hazards, when assigned new work tasks, or

when a new chemical/material, equipment, or process is introduced into the workplace.

3. Employees will receive refresher training when new or previously unrecognized hazards are

identified, when the District feels it is appropriate, or as mandated by regulatory

requirements.

4. Employees attending or receiving training mandated by this Program will sign attendance

sheets and actively participate in training.

5. Specific employee training will be determined/identified by the IIPP District Coordinator,

IIPP Site Coordinators, and the Site Managers in consultation with safety consultants. This

training will be designed to address department and task specific compliance and accident

prevention needs.

6. IIPP District Coordinator and District Workers’ Compensation Coordinators will receive

appropriate training to ensure compliance with OSHA regulations.

Page 10

RECORDKEEPING DUTIES

Records of hazard assessments, safety and hazard inspections, safety meetings, accident

investigations, and safety and health training for each employee will be maintained for at least 5

years.

The hazard assessments, health and safety inspections, and accident investigation records will

identify the person conducting the inspection/activity, any unsafe conditions or practices identified,

and the corrective action(s) taken to eliminate or control the hazard.

Health and safety training records shall include the name of the employees trained, date and type of

training provided, and the provider of the training.

Education Code, Section 72400; 3

Government Code, Section 3543.1(b); 4

Penal Code, Section 502; 5

PREAMBLE 9

These standards and administrative procedures defining and governing acceptable and 10

unacceptable use will apply to anyone who uses any computer system, network system, 11

Internet connectivity or intranet site or other data processing resources provided by the 12

District. It is considered a violation of District policy to use the District’s network and/or 13

Internet access in such a way that it interferes with or is incompatible with the user’s 14

performance, duties, or responsibilities. 15

As a condition for receiving and exercising computing privileges, a user of District 16

computing systems must read, understand, and comply with the standards and 17

procedures outlined herein and to any further guidelines provided by the administrators 18

of each area and/or system. 19

Unacceptable use is prohibited and can become grounds for loss of computing 20

privileges, disciplinary action up to and including termination or expulsion and/or legal 21

actions under local, state and federal laws. 22

The District is committed to providing access to computing resources to all members of

its current student body, faculty, staff and members of the Board of Trustees and other 24

authorized community members. While the fullest possible open access to District 25

computing facilities and systems is consistent with the educational and service missions 26

of the District, such access to this valuable and vulnerable District resource is a 27

privilege. The District is responsible for securing its network and computing systems to 28

a reasonable degree against failure, loss of data, and unauthorized access, while 29

making them accessible to the largest possible group of authorized and legitimate users 30

and uses within the financial and educational constraints of the District. 31

PRIVILEGES 32

An individual user must respect the rights of other users, respect the integrity of the 33

systems he/she is using, and observe all relevant laws and regulations. 34

Users do not own either District computers or accounts, but rather are granted the use 35

of such computers and accounts. The District owns the computers and accounts and 36

grants individuals the privilege of using them. 37

District employees may apply for user IDs to utilize email and restricted Internet

services. Connectivity to the Internet from off-campus locations is not provided for by 39

the District. 40

RESPONSIBILITIES 41

Each user is held accountable for his/her actions while using District resources. By 42

using his/her District provided resources, each user acknowledges and agrees to abide 43

by and conform to the following: 44

 Computers and networks are provided to support District related research, 45

instruction, learning, communication, distribution of scholarly information, and 46

administrative activities. 47

 A user shall not attempt to modify any system or network or attempt to crash or 48

“hack” into District systems. A user shall not tamper with any software protections or 49

restrictions placed on computer applications or files to protect shared assets, assets 50

managed by others, or software or data not part of a learning or research program in 51

approved curriculum. Unless properly authorized, a user shall not attempt to access 52

restricted portions of any operating system or security software. Improperly 53

accessing or attempting to access confidential information concerning students or 54

employees is prohibited. A user shall not attempt to remove existing software or add 55

his/her personal software to District computers and systems unless authorized by 56

the Director of Information Technology or his/her designee. 57

 Prior to the purchase and installation of new software or hardware, the authorizing 58

Dean/area manager should contact the Information Technology Department to verify 59

licensing restrictions and compatibility of new software with the computer(s) and the 60

network. 61

 An authorizing Dean/area manager must also contact the Information Technology 62

Department to verify software accessibility for students with disabilities prior to the 63

purchase and installation of any new software or hardware for educational programs. 64

 A user shall use only his/her designated computer account. An account is non-65

transferable: a user shall not use another individual’s ID, password or account. A 66

user should respect the privacy and personal rights of others and not access or copy 67

another user’s email, data or files without permission. A user is responsible for 68

his/her own computer account(s) and shall not allow others to use his/her 69

account(s). A user should take precautions, such as locking the computer on which 70

he/she is working when he/she is not able to physically control access, so that 71

others may not access his/her computer resources. A user should select a secure 72

password, one that cannot be found within the dictionary, or easily guessed. The 73

use of upper/lower case letters in conjunction with numbers in selecting a password 74

is highly recommended. 75

 A user is responsible for using software and electronic materials in accordance with 76

policies and the law expressly prohibit the copying of software in violation of their 78

copyrights. 79

INDIVIDUAL USER RIGHTS 80

An authorized user is entitled to due process rights as described in Board Policies, 81

Administrative Procedures and collective bargaining agreements. 82

The District will respect the exercise of academic freedom as described in Board Policy 83

and an individual user’s right to free speech provided that the exercise of such right 84

does not violate any existing District Board Policy, Administrative Procedure, local, state 85

or federal laws. Individual rights to free speech do not overrule or preclude the express 86

prohibition of harassment of individuals on or off campus. 87

The District and its authorized users shall respect individual ownership rights to 88

intellectual property, subject to existing District Board Policies, Administrative 89

Procedures and collective bargaining agreements. 90

Virtually no online activities or services guarantee absolute privacy. It is impossible for 91

the District to protect the privacy of email messages and other electronic files or 92

documents. A user should be aware that electronic mail, documents and files are not 93

entirely private and are more analogous to an open postcard than to a letter inside a 94

sealed envelope traveling through the U.S. mail. A user should exercise appropriate 95

care and caution. 96

The District cannot protect an individual against the receipt of material that may be 97

offensive to him/her. A user of District electronic computing is warned that he/she may 98

receive material that is offensive. Likewise, an individual who uses email or those who 99

place personal information on the Internet should know that the District cannot protect 100

an individual from an invasion of privacy. The District will make every reasonable 101

attempt to honor the privacy of an individual using the District’s computing resources 102

for District business within the guidelines of the Electronic Communications Privacy Act 103

(ECPA), which makes it illegal to intercept electronic communications on a public or 104

private network without proper authorization, and state and federal students records 105

laws including the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA), and the Health 106

Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA). 107

The District reserves the right, for an extraordinary reason (e.g., basic system security, 108

the safety of the campus or of an individual member of the campus community, the 109

interception of suspected illegal or inappropriate activity), to access and monitor all files, 110

and Internet and email use. 111

APPROPRIATE USES OF DISTRICT COMPUTER RESOURCES 112

The District’s computing facilities and network systems are provided to support the 113

instructional, cultural, research, professional and administrative activities of the District. 114

An employee may use District computers and the network for union activities in 115

accordance with applicable collective bargaining agreements and policies and 116

procedures governing the use of District equipment. A user is required to behave in a 117

responsible, ethical and legal manner and to follow this procedure and existing Board 118

Policies, Administrative Procedures and local, state and federal laws. 119

Individual divisions or areas within the District may define additional conditions of use 120

for information resources under their control. These statements must be consistent with 121

this overall procedure but may provide additional detail, guidelines and/or restrictions. 122

PROHIBITED USES OF COLLEGE COMPUTER RESOURCES 123

A user may not participate in any activities knowingly and/or carelessly that have the 125

potential to interfere with or disrupt network users, services, or equipment. The 126

distribution or “forwarding” of spam or unsolicited advertising is strictly prohibited. The 127

District equipment may not be used to violate copyright laws or license agreements. No 128

one may inspect, change, copy or distribute proprietary data, programs, files, disks or 129

software without the proper authority. The prohibited transmission of copyrighted 130

material is forbidden without the express written authorization of the copyright holder. 131

Computer software protected by copyright must not be copied into, away from, or with 132

the use of campus computing facilities, except as permitted by law or by the terms of 133

the copyright. This means that such computer software may only be copied in order to 134

make back-up copies. The number of copies and distribution of copies may not be 135

done in such a way that the number of simultaneous users in a department exceeds the 136

number of original copies purchased by that department unless concurrent licensing 137

applies. 138

Defamation/Libel/Slander 139

Creating or transmitting any false statement that causes injury to an individual’s 140

reputation is strictly prohibited. Any user creating or transmitting defamatory statements 141

shall have sole liability for any damages resulting from such defamatory statement. Any 142

user may also be subject to the District disciplinary procedures for such action. 143

The user agrees never to attempt to transmit, or cause to be transmitted, any message 144

in which the origination is deliberately misleading. 145

Commercial and Political Use 146

Commercial use of the District computing systems for personal gain is prohibited. Use 147

for commercial and illegal purposes is unacceptable (e.g. inappropriate mass mailing or 148

“spamming”). This is in direct violation of the Cenic policy under which the District 149

obtains its access to the Internet. (See section 10 of the procedure.) 150

Personal use may be restricted if the resources consumed interfere with equitable 151

access by other users and the utilization of the system for school business purposes. 152

Direct marketing of personal products and services of any kind is prohibited. 153

Transmitting any unsolicited advertising, promotional materials or other forms of 154

soliciting is prohibited without authorization from District administration. 155

Links to external sites that market required or recommended instructional materials are 156

allowed only if such links appear in the context of other required and recommended 157

instructional materials, more than one source for such materials is listed, and the 158

materials are available at the campus bookstore and shelved with instructional items. 159

References on individual web pages to external sites that market non-instructional 160

products and services such as consulting services, etc. are allowed only in the context 161

of a résumé listing. 162

Links to external sites using direct marketing language such as “consulting services” is 163

not permitted. 164

The District is a non-profit, tax-exempt organization and, as such, is subject to specific 165

local, state and federal laws regarding sources of income, political activities, use of 166

property and similar matters. District information resources must not be used for 167

partisan political activities that urge the support or defeat of any ballot measure or 168

candidate, or where such use would otherwise be prohibited by local, state, or federal 169

laws, Board Policy or Administrative Procedures. 170

Viruses and “Hacking” 241

A user may not upload, transmit, intentionally download, or participate in any manner in 242

the creation, promulgation, publication or use of computer viruses on District resources 243

not designated for such research purposes. A user may not knowingly or carelessly 244

introduce or distribute (i.e. by “forwarding”) any invasive or destructive programs (such 245

as viruses, worms, Trojan Horses) in the District computing system. 246

Engaging in any form of “hacking” (i.e. gaining illegal access) while using the District 247

computing or network systems is prohibited. “Hacking” includes, but is not limited to, 248

gaining access to restricted computer systems/sites and/or viewing, copying, 249

downloading or altering the computer programs, data files, and other materials 250

contained therein. 251

Improper Use of Private Passwords and Security Devices 252

A user shall use only his/her designated computer account(s) or an appropriate 253

authorized “generic” account to which he/she is entitled to access. A user is 254

responsible for his/her computer account(s) and shall not allow others to use his/her 255

computer account(s). Individual password security is the responsibility of each user. A 256

user may not use any passwords, recognition codes, security access information, or 257

physical locking devices such as locks on any part of the computing system without the 258

District’s prior written consent. A user must inform the Director of Information 259

Technology in writing all electronic security devices the user wishes to use prior to using 260

them and provide electronic keys, passwords, access codes and/or other security 261

information or materials to permit the District to obtain access to the user’s secured 262

areas. The District reserves the right to remove any such device at any time at the 263

District’s discretion. 264

Users should always maintain their own backups of their protected data as the removal 265

of any private protection systems, of which the District was not aware, could result in 266

unrecoverable data loss. It is a violation for users to protect any assets to which the 267

District has an interest with such systems if the keys are not placed in a proper, 268

authorized escrow with the Director of Information Technology. 269

System Alterations 270

Modifying or altering the computing system (except in approved research or for 271

instructional purposes) in any way is prohibited. This includes but is not limited to 272

altering or attempting to alter system software or hardware configurations on either 273

network systems or local computing devices; installing unauthorized software programs 274

on District local computing devices or network systems and/or using such programs; 275

and/or attempting to circumvent local or network system security measures. 276

Modification and alteration of the computing system does not include ordinary 277

operations involving the saving and deleting user generated files that are created in 278

furtherance of District business or educational purposes. 279

Nondiscrimination/Discriminatory Harassment 280

A user has the right to be free from any conduct connected with the use of the District’s 281

computer and network resources which discriminates against any person on the basis 282

of the categories contained in BP 3410 titled Nondiscrimination. Using the District 283

computer and network resources to transmit any message, create any kind of 284

communication, or store information which violates District policies or procedures 285

regarding discrimination or harassment is prohibited. 286

Unauthorized Use/Failure to Follow Procedures 287

Use of the computer and network systems is a privilege extended to students and 288

employees and not a right. An employee user will provide acknowledgement of receipt 289

of the terms and conditions in Administrative Procedure 3720 to the District before the 290

District will provide use privileges. The written acknowledgement will be retained in the 291

employee’s personnel file. A student user will be provided notice of the terms and 292

conditions of this Administrative Procedure through the class schedules, the District 293

website and applicable instructional materials. 294

If substantial amendments, modifications and/or a revocation of the terms and

295

ABOUT THE CERRITOS COLLEGE POLICE DEPARTMENT

The Board of Trustees has established the Cerritos College Police Department (CCPD), which has primary

responsibility for patrolling District property. The Police Department’s jurisdiction includes other grounds or

properties owned, operated, controlled, or administered on behalf of the Cerritos Community College District as

outlined in the Education Code, Section 72330. CCPD is committed to the safety and security of all students, staff,

and faculty, as well as others visiting Cerritos College. CCPD is responsible for patrolling District grounds, facilities,

and parking lots to protect persons and property and enforce applicable laws and ordinances.

CCPD police officers have complete police authority to apprehend and arrest anyone involved in illegal acts,

pursuant to California Penal Code Section 830.32 and Education Code Section 72330. Having met all state

standards for selection and training, the officers have authority equal to a municipal police officer or county deputy

sheriff.

CCPD personnel work closely with local, state, and federal police agencies and have direct radio communication

with the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department as well as other local, state, federal, and military agencies which

participate in the Los Angeles Regional Tactical Communication System (LARTCS). CCPD is also part of the State

of California 911 Emergency System.

In addition to police officers, CCPD employs Police Cadets who patrol the campus on foot and by bicycle. While not

police officers, Cadets each have radio contact with CCPD and can summon assistance when necessary.

Cerritos College has a formal “memorandum of understanding” (MOU) with the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s

Department for its assistance with incidents that require resources not available on-site. This agreement also

clarifies operational responsibilities for investigations of Part I violent crimes and delineates the specific

geographical boundaries of each agency’s operational responsibility. This written agreement is public record and is

made available for inspection by members of the public upon request to the Chief of the Cerritos College Police

Department. Resources from other local, state and federal agencies are also available for incidents requiring

special personnel or equipment.

REPORTING CRIMINAL ACTIVITY

Members of the District, guests and the general public are strongly encouraged to immediately report all crimes and

public safety related incidents to the Campus Police Department (AP §3515). Crimes should be reported regardless

of the victim’s desire for prosecution to ensure inclusion in the annual crime statistics and to aid in providing timely

safety warnings to the community, when appropriate.

The Cerritos College Police Department is staffed 24 hours a day, every day. A person may report any criminal

activity or suspected criminal activity or any other emergency at any time, day or night, by calling the Police

Department. They can be reached by calling (562) 860-2451, ext. 2325 for routine inquiries or, in case of

emergency, by dialing 911 from any campus extension or pay phone on campus. There are also Emergency

Phones located throughout the campus which directly dial the Police Department. Emergency calls can also be

made via cell phone by dialing (562) 402-3674. Reports may be made in person at the Police Department, which is

located on the south side of campus at the 11090 New Falcon Way, Cerritos CA 90703.

All CCPD incident reports will be investigated as appropriate and those with sufficient information to warrant

criminal filing will be submitted to the District Attorney’s office for consideration. Reports involving students in

violations of the law or the Student Standards of Conduct are forwarded to Judicial Affairs for review and potential

action.

OFF-CAMPUS CRIMINAL ACTIVITY

Cerritos College does not have off-campus student organizations. Crimes which occur at off-campus District

approved events such as athletic competitions should be reported to the law enforcement agency with jurisdiction

over the area the crime takes place.

CONFIDENTIAL REPORTING

If you are the victim of a crime but do not want to pursue action within the criminal justice or college system, you

may still want to consider making a confidential report. With your permission, the Vice-President of Human

Resources or a designee of can file a report on the details of the incident without revealing your identity. The

purpose of a confidential report is to comply with your wish to keep the matter confidential, while taking steps to

ensue the future safety of yourself and others. With such information, the college can keep an accurate record of

the number of incidents on campus, determine where there is a pattern of crime with regard to a particular location,

method or assailant, and alert the campus community to potential danger. Reports filed in this manner are counted

and disclosed in the annual crimes statistics for the institution.

On-campus counselors and mental health professionals are encouraged to inform persons they are counseling of

the procedures to report crimes on a voluntary, confidential basis for inclusion in the annual crime statistics.

DISCLOSURES TO ALLEGED VICTIMS OF CRIMES OF VIOLENCE OR NON-FORCIBLE SEX OFFENSES

Cerritos College will, upon written request, disclose to the alleged victim of a crime of violence, or a non-forcible sex

offense, the results of any disciplinary hearing conducted by the college against the student who is the allege

perpetrator of the crime or offence. If the alleged victim is deceased as a result of the crime or offence, the college

will provide the results of the disciplinary hearing to the victim’s next of kin, if so requested.

TIMELY SAFETY WARNINGS

The District publishes “timely safety warnings” to the campus community any time a situation arises, either on or off

campus that, in the judgment of the President/Superintendent or designee, represents an ongoing or continuing

threat to students and employees. These warnings are disseminated by the Campus Police department in a timely

manner so as to aid in the prevention of similar crimes. (See Board AP §3515) Warnings will be issued through the

college e-mail system to students, faculty, staff and the campus’ student newspaper “Talon Marks”.

In the event of circumstances that could pose an immediate threat to the community and individuals, the Campus

Police department may also alert the community via text messaging utilizing AlertU and post a notice on the

electronic bulletin board accessible at www.cerritoscollege.us. Copies of the notice are also posted at the entrances

to each building.

Anyone with information warranting a timely safety warning should report the circumstances to the Campus Police

Department, by phone at (562) 924-3618 or in person at the Campus Police station located on the South side of

campus at 11090 New Falcon Way, Cerritos CA 90703.

CRIME PREVENTION AND AWARENESS

Cerritos College enjoys a crime rate much lower than that of the surrounding area, but no community can be totally

risk-free in today’s society. The campus police department recognizes that safety on campus is everyone’s concern

and partners with students, staff and faculty in creating an atmosphere that is safe and encourages learning.

Working together with Student Government, Staff and Faculty groups and various clubs on campus, the police

department strives to provide education while identifying specific concerns of the campus community.

EDUCATION

Periodically throughout the year, CCPD officers, in cooperation with other campus departments and student clubs,

present crime prevention awareness sessions on sexual assault, theft and vandalism, as well as educational

sessions on personal safety.

In the last year, CCPD has provided almost a dozen training sessions on Emergency Preparedness and Disaster

Response to the campus community. This was done in conjunction with a complete rewrite of the District’s

Emergency Operation Plan and campus wide drills to test the new plan. Efforts to educate the community will

continue, along with expanded, multi-agency drills.

The campus Police department has made focused efforts to educate and inform the campus community about its

number one crime problem, the theft of unattended property. By using various media outlets on campus and

through the distribution of information cards in areas attractive to thieves, the police department has increased

awareness and solicited the help of campus members in protecting personal property.

A common theme of all awareness and crime prevention programs is to encourage students and employees to be

aware of their responsibility for their own security and the security of others.

In addition to seminars, information is disseminated to students and employees through crime prevention

awareness fliers, security alerts, and articles in the campus and student newspapers.

PREVENTION

In addition to routine vehicle patrol, campus police officers and police cadets participate in bicycle patrol, allowing

better accessibility by students as well as more effective patrol of inner portions of the campus.

Crime prevention programs on personal safety and theft prevention are sponsored by various campus

organizations throughout the year. CCPD personnel facilitate programs for students, faculty and new employees

providing a variety of educational strategies and tips on how to protect themselves from sexual assault, theft and

other crimes.

At least once a year, the police department and members of the student government team up for a “safety walk” of

the campus. These safety walks supplement ongoing efforts to evaluate areas such as lighting, landscaping,

building access, and emergency phones to best increase security.

The department provides an escort service 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. In addition, personnel are available to

assist with dead car batteries or keys locked in cars.

SAFETY TIPS

 Stay alert and be aware of your surroundings. Know what is typical and what is not.

 Report all crimes and suspicious activity to Campus Police immediately.

 Avoid walking alone after dark. Make arrangements to travel with friends along a well-lit route, or request

an escort from Campus Police.

 Most crimes on campus are thefts of unattended property. Do not leave purses, backpacks, books, etc.

unattended, even for a minute.

 Know the location of Emergency Phones and Pay Phones in the areas you frequent.

 Never leave valuables visible from outside your vehicle. Lock all property including books, purses and

backpacks in your trunk or take them with you.

 Lock your office door if working after hours

 Let others know where you are going, especially if you might be there alone.

 If you are uncomfortable, go to where there are other people.

 Headphones can eliminate your ability to be aware of your surroundings.

 Move confidently at a steady pace and make eye contact with people.

 Keep keys in hand when moving to a vehicle.

 Keep windows and doors locked.

 Check the interior of a vehicle before getting in.

 Go to the nearest open business or police station if you are being followed.

SAFETY POLICIES

The Cerritos College Board of Trustees has adopted numerous policies addressing safety issues on campus. Some

of these include:

Security of and Access to Facilities

During business hours, the District will be open to students, employees, contractors, and community members.

During non-business hours, access to all District facilities is by key, if issued, or by admittance via the Campus

Police Department. In the case of periods of extended closing, the District will admit only those with prior written

approval to all facilities. Cerritos College does not have student housing.

Some facilities may have individual hours, which may vary at different times of the year. In these cases, the

facilities will be secured according to schedules developed by the department responsible for the facility.

Emergencies may necessitate changes or alterations to any posted schedules. Areas that are revealed as

problematic will have regular periodic security surveys. The Vice Presidents of Student Services and Business

Services, and managers from the Campus Police Department, Facilities Department, and other concerned areas

review these results. These surveys examine security issues such as landscaping, locks, alarms, lighting, and

communications. Additionally, the Director of Physical Plant and Construction Services, and the Chief of Campus

Police co-chair the District Committee on Safety which consists of representatives from the various constituencies

on campus and meets on a monthly basis to discuss issues of pressing concern. (AP §3501)

Weapons

Firearms, knives, explosives, or other dangerous objects, including but not limited to any facsimile firearm, knife, or

explosive, are prohibited on all District grounds, except as authorized by law.

Alcohol and Illegal Drug Possession, Use and Sale

The possession, sale or the furnishing of alcohol on campus is governed by California state law and these

procedures. The possession, sale, consumption or furnishing of alcohol is controlled by the California Department

of Alcohol and Beverage Control. However, the enforcement of alcohol laws on-campus is the primary responsibility

of the Campus Police Department. The campus has been designated “Drug free” and only under certain

circumstances is the consumption of alcohol permitted. The possession, sale, manufacture or distribution of any

controlled substance is illegal under both state and federal laws. Such laws are strictly enforced by the Campus

Police Department. Violators are subject to disciplinary action, criminal prosecution, fine and imprisonment. It is

unlawful to sell, furnish or provide alcohol to a person under the age of 21. The possession of alcohol by anyone

less than 21 years of age in a public place or a place open to the public is illegal. It is also a violation of this policy

for anyone to consume or possess alcohol in any public or private area of campus without prior District approval.

Organizations or groups violating alcohol or substance policies or laws may be subject to sanctions by the District.

Alcoholic beverages on campus are permitted if:

 The alcoholic beverage is for use in connection with a course of instruction, sponsored dinner or meal

demonstration given as part of a culinary arts program, and the instructor or individual has been authorized

to acquire, possess, use, sell, or consume it by the President/Superintendent.

 The alcoholic beverage is possessed, consumed or sold during a special event, which is sponsored by the

Cerritos College Foundation and authorized by the President/Superintendent, where the principal

attendees are members of the general public or invited guests and not students.

DRUG AND ALCOHOL FREE ENVIRONMENT AND DRUG AND ALCOHOL ABUSE PREVENTION PROGRAM

The District is committed to providing its employees and students with an alcohol and drug-free campus and

workplace environment. It emphasizes prevention and intervention through education.

Prevention and Intervention Programs

The District provides education and maintains programs and services designed to aid students, employees and

their families in receiving assistance for alcohol and/or drug abuse problems. Included in these educational and

assistive programs and services are:

 Notification of the dangers of drug use and dependency in the class schedule;

 Mental health services provided to students through the Student Health Services; and

 An Employee Assistance Program (EAP) for employees and their families.

Alcohol and Drug Prohibitions

The unlawful manufacture, distribution, dispensing, possession, or use of alcohol or any controlled substance is

prohibited on District property, during District-sponsored field trips, activities or workshops, and in any facility or

vehicle operated by the District.

Violation of Board Policy 3550, Drug and Alcohol Free Environment and Drug and Alcohol Abuse Prevention

Program, will be addressed by the District. The District will take appropriate action designed to address each

specific violation, which may include, but is not limited to:

 Termination of employment,

 Expulsion,

 Referral to Campus Police or other law enforcement agency for prosecution as permitted by law, or

 Mandatory participation in an alcohol or drug abuse assistance or rehabilitation program.

The Campus Police department vigorously enforces Federal and State underage drinking laws as well as Federal

and State drug laws.

EMERGENCY RESPONSE AND EVACUATION PROCEDURES

General information about the emergency response and evacuation procedures for the District is publicized each

year as part of the District’s Clery Act compliance efforts and that information is available at www.cerritoscollege.us.

All members of the campus community are notified on an annual basis that they are required to notify the Campus

Police Department of any incident on campus that involves a significant emergency or dangerous situation that may

involve an immediate or ongoing threat to the health and safety of students and employees on campus. The

Campus Police Department has the responsibility of responding to, and summoning the necessary resources, to

mitigate, investigate, and document any situation that may cause a significant emergency or dangerous situation. In

addition, Campus Police has a responsibility to respond to such incidents to determine if the situation does in fact,

pose a threat to the community. If so, federal law requires that the institution immediately notify the campus

community or the appropriate segments of the community that may be affected by the situation.

Upon confirmation or verification by the District that a legitimate emergency or dangerous situation involving an

immediate threat to the health or safety of students or employees occurring on campus, the District will determine

the content of the message and will use some or all of the systems described below to communicate the threat to

the campus community or to the appropriate segment of the community, if the threat is limited to a particular

building or segment of the population. The District will, without delay, take into account the safety of the community,

determine the content of the notification and initiate the notification system, unless issuing a notification will, in the

judgment of the first responders (including, but not limited to Campus Police), compromise the efforts to assist a

victim or to contain, respond to, or otherwise mitigate the emergency.

In the event of a serious incident that poses an immediate threat to members of the campus community, the District

has various systems in place for communicating information quickly. Some or all of these methods of

communication may be activated in the event of an immediate threat to the campus community. These methods of

communication include network emails, emergency text messages that can be sent to a

phone or Personal Digital Assistant (individuals can sign up for this service on the District website), public address

system, phone calling trees, District website and emergency messages that scroll across display screens in

campus buildings. The District will post updates during a critical incident on the District website at

www.cerritos.edu. Individuals can call the District’s recorded information telephone line at (562) 860-2451 for

updates. Cerritos College students, staff, faculty and others can sign up for emergency text message alerts at

www.cerritoscollege.us or text keyword “cerritos” to 25378 from their mobile phones.

The District’s Director of Public & Governmental Relations will be responsible for the dissemination of emergency

information to the larger community through media alerts.

Testing Emergency Response and Evacuation Procedures

An evacuation drill is coordinated by the Campus Police Department at least once per year for all facilities on

campus. Students learn the locations of the emergency exits in the buildings and are provided guidance about the

direction they should travel when exiting each facility for a short-term building evacuation.

Evacuation drills are monitored by the Campus Police Department and District administration to evaluate egress

and behavioral patterns. Reports are prepared by participating departments which identify deficient equipment so

that repairs can be made immediately. Recommendations for improvements are also submitted to the appropriate

departments and offices for consideration.

The District conducts numerous announced and unannounced drills and exercises each year and conducts follow-

through activities designed for assessment and evaluation of emergency plans and capabilities. Campus Police and

District administration coordinate announced and unannounced evacuation drills at least once per year, as

described above, to test the emergency response and evacuation procedures, and to assess and evaluate the

emergency evacuation plans and capabilities. For each test conducted, Campus Police will document a description

of the exercise, the date, time, and whether it was announced or unannounced. The District will publish a summary

of its emergency response and evacuation procedures in conjunction with at least one drill or exercise each

calendar year.

In the event of an emergency, natural disaster or the occurrence of a hazardous condition the District will activate

its plan and procedures to protect and govern employees, students, visitors, and children in childcare programs on

campus and/or in district-owned or operated facilities. The District shall maintain an emergency management team

to aid in the creation, maintenance, updating, and implementation of its emergency plan and procedures.

SEXUAL ASSAULT PREVENTION AND RESPONSE

The District has established a Crisis Assessment, Intervention and Response (CAIR) team on campus. CAIR

consists of representatives from Counseling, Student Health and Psychological Services, Judicial Affairs, Disabled

Students Programs and Services, and Campus Police. CAIR, with the assistance of outside experts in sex offense

education, educates the campus community about sexual assaults and date rape through on-campus training

programs. Literature on date rape education, risk reduction and District response is available through Health and

Wellness and Campus Police.

If you are a victim of a sexual assault on campus, your first priority should be to get to a place of safety. You should

then obtain necessary medical treatment. The Campus Police Department strongly advocates that a victim of

sexual assault report the incident in a timely manner. Time is a critical factor for evidence collection and

preservation. An assault should be reported directly to Campus Police. Filing a police report with a CCPD officer

will not obligate the victim to prosecute, nor will it subject the victim to scrutiny or judgmental opinions from officers.

Filing a police report will:

 Ensure that a victim of a sexual assault receives the necessary medical treatment and tests, at no expense

to the victim

 Provide the opportunity for collection of evidence helpful in prosecution, which cannot be obtained later

(ideally a victim of sexual assault should not wash, douche, use the toilet, or change clothing prior to a

medical/legal exam)

 Assure the victim has access to free confidential counseling from counselors specifically trained in the area

of sexual assault crisis intervention

When a sexual assault is reported to Campus Police, Campus Police may, with the victim’s consent, notify other

personnel as necessary to provide care and services to the victim. These personnel include the

President/Superintendent; Vice President of Student Services; Coordinator of Judicial Affairs; manager of

Employment Services/Diversity Officer; and/or the Coordinator of Student Health Services.

A student victim of a sexual assault may choose for the investigation to be pursued through the criminal justice

system and the Office of Judicial Affairs, or only the latter. A representative from the Police Department or the

Office of Judicial Affairs will guide the victim through the available options and support the victim in his or her

decision. Various counseling options are available from the College through the Student Health Center and/or

Employee Assistance. Counseling and support services outside the District system are available by contacting the

National Sexual Assault Hotline at (800) 656-HOPE (1-800-656-4673).

District disciplinary proceedings are detailed in the Cerritos College General Catalog. Both the victim and accused

are entitled to the same opportunities to have others present during a disciplinary proceeding. Both the victim and

accused will be informed of the outcome of any hearing. A student found guilty of violation the District sexual

misconduct policy could be criminally prosecuted in the state courts and may be suspended or expelled from the

District for the first offense. Student victims have the option to change their academic situation after an alleged

sexual assault, if such changes are reasonably available.

SEX OFFENDER REGISTRATION

Sex offenders are required to register with the police in the jurisdiction in which they reside and at institutions of

higher learning if they are students or if they work as employees, contractors, or volunteers.

Sex offenders who may be required to register should do so at the Cerritos College Police Department, located on

the south side of campus at 11090 New Falcon Way, Cerritos CA 90703.

Information regarding registered sex offenders in the state of California can be obtained through the Megan’s’ Law

web site, located at www.meganslaw.ca.gov. This information is also available to the public at some local police

departments and sheriff’s offices.

The Cerritos College Police Department does not provide public access to the Department of Justice Megan’s Law

program. There are several agencies in the local community where a member of the public can access this

information.

Public access to viewing the Megan’s Web program is generally by appointment, and it is recommended that you

call the agency before going to find out what hours the information is accessible.

CRIME STATISTICS

The following information is provided as part of Cerritos College’s continuing commitment to safety and security on

campus in compliance with the Jeanne Clery Disclosure of Campus Security Policy and Campus Crime Statistics

Act. Crime statistics from more than 600 U.S. colleges, universities and career schools can be found at the web site

http://ope.ed.gov/security.

Cerritos Community College District Procedure No. 3050

General Institution

AP 3050 INSTITUTIONAL CODE OF ETHICS

Reference: 2

Accreditation Standard III.A.1.d 3

Definition of Ethics 4

Ethical behavior is often defined as “right” or “good” behavior as measured against 5

commonly accepted rules of conduct for a society or for a profession. The ethical 6

person is often described in absolute terms as one who is fair, honest, straightforward, 7

trustworthy, dispassionate, and unprejudiced. If, however, one is inconsistently fair or 8

honest, one loses credibility and is perceived to be unethical. The ethical person must 9

be conspicuously consistent in the exercise of integrity to sustain the credibility that is 10

an expectation of office. 11

Importance of Ethics 12

The credibility of the District’s employees depends upon whether they are perceived as 13

honest men and women. If integrity contributes to credibility, then ethical behavior is a 14

singular prerequisite to successful performance. 15

Statements of ethical standards do not necessarily ensure ethical behavior. Yet public 16

statements of intent surely create an expectation that employees will indeed act with 17

integrity in the public interest. 18

Expectations for Ethical Behavior 19

Employees of the District shall be committed to the principles of honesty and equity. 20

They shall not seek to abridge for any purpose the freedoms of other employees or 21

students. At the same time, they shall not willingly permit the interests of any members 22

of the college community to override the best interests of the public served by the 23

District. 24

Employees shall exercise judgments that are dispassionate, fair, consistent, and 25

equitable. They shall exhibit openness and reliability in what they say and do as 26

educational leaders. They shall confront issues and people without prejudice. They 27

shall demonstrate a commitment to excellence in education and uncompromising 28

commitment to the principles of ethical behavior. 29

Similarly, students are expected to abide by ethical behavior and decision-making in 30

their treatment of District employees, other students, and members of the public. 31

Employee Responsibilities 32

As practitioners of ethical behavior, District personnel have a responsibility: 33

 to provide and protect student access to the educational resources of the District;34

 to protect human dignity and individual freedom, and assure that students are35

respected as individuals, as learners, and as independent decision-makers;36

 to protect students from disparagement, ridicule, or capricious judgment;37

 to keep foremost in mind at all times that the District exists to serve students;38

 to foster a climate of trust and mutual support;39

 to foster openness by encouraging and maintaining two-way communication;40

 to encourage, support, and abide by the written Board Policies and41

Administrative Procedures of the District; and42

 to challenge unethical behavior in a timely manner.43

were previously compensated on the basis of a “frozen” former overload hourly rate at the time of

termination from full-time academic employment, and also to all future full-time academic employees

who terminate from employment with the District.

AUGUST 2010

alifornia law guarantees certain benefits to

employees who are injured or become ill

because of their jobs.

Any job related injury or illness is covered.

Types of injuries include, but may not be

limited to, strains, sprains, cuts, cumulative

or repetitive traumas, fractures, illnesses and

aggravations. Some injuries from voluntary,

off duty, recreational, social or athletic

activity may not be covered. Check with

your supervisor or Keenan HealthCare if

you have any questions.

All work related injuries must be reported

to your supervisor immediately. Don’t

delay. There are time limits. If you wait too

long, you may lose your right to benefits.

Your employer is required to provide you a

claim form within one working day after

learning about your injury.

It is a misdemeanor for an employer to

discriminate against workers who are

injured on the job or who testify in another

employee’s case. Any such employee may

be entitled to compensation, reinstatement

and reimbursement for lost wages and

benefits.

dical Care – All medical treatment,

without a deductible or dollar limit. For

dates of injury on or after 1/1/04 there is a

limit of 24 chiropractic, 24 physical therapy

and 24 occupational therapy visits. However

this limit does not apply for post surgical

treatment. Costs are paid directly by Keenan

HealthCare, through your employers

workers’ compensation program, so you

should never see a bill.

If emergency treatment is required go to the

nearest emergency room or contact 911.

Keenan HealthCare will arrange medical

treatment, often by a specialist for the

particular injury. Preferred Provider

Networks may be utilized for physicians as

well as medical care centers.

If your employer offers group health

insurance you are eligible to treatment with

your personal physician should you become

injured on the job. If you are eligible,

before you are injured

, you must notify

your employer in writing and provide your

employer written documentation from your

personal physician that they agree to be

predesignated. Your personal physician

must be your regular primary care physician

who previously directed your medical

treatment, who retains your medical history

and records. You may only predesignate

your primary care physician if they are a

family practitioner, general practitioner,

board certified or board eligible internist,

obstetrician-gynecologist, pediatrician or a

multi-specialty medical group, whose

practice is predominantly for non-

occupational injuries and illnesses.

Your employer may be using a Medical

Provider Network (MPN), which is a

selected group of health care providers to

provide treatment to workers injured on the

job. If you have predesignated a personal

physician prior to your work injury, then

you may receive treatment from your

predesignated doctor. If you have not

predesignated and your employer is using

and MPN, you are free to choose an

appropriate provider from the MPN list

after the first medical visit directed by your

employer or Keenan & Associates. For

more information, see the MPN contact

information on reverse side.

If your employer does not

participate in a

Medical Provider Network (MPN) you may

be able to change your treating physician to

your personal chiropractor or acupuncturist.

Generally your employer, or Keenan, has

the right to select your treating physician

within the first 30 days after your employer

knows of your injury or illness. After your

employer, or Keenan, initiates treatment

you may, upon request, have your treatment

transferred to your personal chiropractor or

acupuncturist. To be eligible you must

notify your employer in writing prior to

being injured.

If a work injury occurs

pamphlet

Workers’ compensation benefits include

AUGUST 2010

Your employer will provide you with a form

to use an optional method to predesignate

your personal physician

ontact Keenan HealthCare if you plan to

change physicians at any time.

Payment for Lost Wages - If you’re

temporarily disabled by a job injury or

illness, you’ll receive tax-free income until

your doctor says you are able to return to

work. Payments are two-thirds of your

average weekly pay, up to a maximum set by

state law. Payments aren’t made for the first

three days unless you are hospitalized in an

inpatient basis or unable to work more than

14 days.

If the injury or illness results in permanent

disability, additional payments will be made

after recovery. If the injury results in death,

benefits will be paid to surviving

dependents.

You may be entitled to a

Supplemental

Job Displacement Voucher

, which

entitles you to a voucher for educational

training.

Contact your employer representative or

Keenan HealthCare if you have questions

about workers’ compensation benefits. You

may also contact and Information and

Assistance Officer at the State Division of

Workers’ Compensation. You can consult

an attorney. Most attorneys offer one free

consultation. If you decide to hire an

attorney, his or her fee will be taken out of

some of your benefits. For names of

workers’ compensation attorneys, call the

State Bar of California at 415-538-2120.

Family Code, Sections 7802, 7807, 7808, 7820-7829, 7890, and 7892 6

The District recognizes the responsibility of its staff to report to the appropriate agency 7

when there is a reasonable suspicion that an abuse or neglect of a child (under the age 8

of 18 years) may have occurred. 9

“Reasonable suspicion” occurs when “it is objectively reasonable for a person to 10

entertain such a suspicion, based upon facts that could cause a reasonable person in a 11

like position, drawing, when appropriate, on his or her training and experience, to 12

suspect child abuse or neglect.” (Penal Code, Section 11166(a)(1)) 13

Definition of Child Abuse or Neglect 14

“Child abuse” is defined as physical abuse, sexual abuse, and/or serious emotional 15

maltreatment, as well as sexual assault, sexual exploitation, and/or the willful cruelty or 16

unjustifiable punishment of a child; incidents of unlawful corporal punishment or injury 17

against a child; or abuse in out-of-home care. (Penal Code, Section 11165) 18

“Neglect” means the negligent treatment or maltreatment of a child by a person 19

responsible for the child’s welfare under circumstances indicating harm or threatened 20

harm to the child’s health or welfare. It includes the negligent failure of a person having 21

the care or custody of a child to provide adequate food, clothing, shelter, medical care, 22

or supervision such that the child’s health is endangered. (Penal Code, Section 23

11165.2) 24

Mandated Reporters 25

Mandated reporters include faculty members, educational administrators, and classified 26

staff. Volunteers are not mandated reporters but are encouraged to report suspected 27

abuse or neglect of a child. (Penal Code, Section 11165 (b)) 28

Reports of Child Abuse or Neglect 29

If a mandated reporter suspects child abuse or neglect, he or she must first make a 30

verbal report to the Department of Children & Family Services Child Protection Hotline 31

at 1-800-540-4000. 32

Mandated reporters must report immediately any reasonable suspicion of child abuse to 33

a local child protective agency such as the Hotline and follow up with a written report 34

within 36 hours. (Penal Code, Section 11166(a)) 35

After a verbal report of abuse or neglect is made, the Hotline will provide mandated 36

reporters with a 19-digit referral number which will be needed to complete the 37

mandatory written report. This report of child abuse and/or neglect must be made on 38

Form SS 8572; copies of this form are available in the Human Resources Office, 39

through the Child Development Center and on the web at 40

https://mandreptla.org/onlineRep.htm. 41

Once the written report of child abuse or neglect is completed, it should be mailed to the 42

following address: 43

Child Protection Hotline 44

3075 Wilshire Boulevard, Fifth Floor 45

Los Angeles, CA 90010 46

Immunity and Failure to Report when Required 47

No mandated reporter who reports a known or suspected instance of child abuse shall 48
