Industrial Safety and Workers' Compensation Division

The Division of Industrial Safety and Workers' Compensation (ISWC Division) has two primary responsibilities:

1.  Administer a City-wide safety and accident prevention program to comply with the Hawaii Occupational Safety and Health Law;
2. Administer the City's self-insured workers' compensation program to comply with the Hawaii Workers' Compensation Law.
