Employers overseeing a staff of over 10 individuals are mandated to maintain a log detailing significant work-related injuries and illnesses. This data serves as a valuable resource for employers, employees, and OSHA, aiding in the evaluation of workplace safety, comprehension of industry-specific hazards, and implementation of safeguards to curtail and eliminate risks. This proactive approach helps avert potential workplace injuries and illnesses down the line.
These records must be preserved on-site for a minimum of five years. Annually, from February to April, employers are required to display a summary of the prior year's recorded injuries and illnesses. Furthermore, upon request, employers must supply copies of these records to present and former employees, as well as their authorized representatives.
Established in 1971, OSHA (Occupational Safety and Health Administration) is committed to fostering a secure and healthy work environment. Among its components is the reporting of minor incidents that surpass the threshold of simplicity, highlighting the organization's dedication to comprehensive workplace safety.
Staying abreast of the latest regulations and best practices in workplace safety and compliance is paramount for the success of any organization.
Inspectors can fine an employer up to $70,000 for each instance of a willful and egregious violation, depending on the specific circumstances and history of OSHA violations. That applies to any failure to properly record an injury or illness.
This insightful webinar offers a unique opportunity to enhance your understanding of OSHA's Injury & Illness Recordkeeping Reporting Requirements and equip yourself with the essential knowledge to ensure full compliance. Attending this training will help you avoid fines for not reporting correctly.
