Safety Program Reviews: Prepare Now, Save Later

One document required to be submitted and posted by federal statutes is your OSHA 300 work-related injuries and illnesses report. Employers with more than 10 employees and whose establishments are not classified as a partially exempt industry must record using OSHA Forms 300, 300A and 301. (Partially exempt industries include establishments in specific low hazard retail, service, finance, insurance or real estate industries.) Employers who are required to keep Form 300, the injury and illness log, must post Form 300A, the summary of work-related injuries and illnesses, in a workplace every year from Feb. 1 to April 30. Current and former employees, or their representatives, have the right to access injury and illness records.
