IAMU members should note that the annual deadline for posting the OSHA
300A injury summary is February 1, 2023. All incidents of work-related
injuries and illnesses must also be logged within seven days (Form 300)
and detailed injury and illness reports for each entry (Form 301) must
also be completed. If there are more than 10 employees at any
time during that calendar year, the employer may come under these
requirements. When counting employees, you must include full-time,
part-time, temporary, and seasonal workers. This exemption is based on
the employment of the entire city rather than the establishment. For
example, if a city has two establishments like water and public works,
one with 5 employees and one with 7 employees, the city must fill out
the forms for each establishment because the city employment is greater
than 10. The summary should contain the total numbers of
job-related injuries and illnesses that occurred in 2022 that were
logged on the OSHA 300 form. Employment information regarding the
annual average number of employees and total hours worked during the
calendar year is needed to calculate incidence rates. Even if
there were no recordable injuries or illnesses in 2022, you are still
required to post the form with zeros on the total line. The 300A summary
must remain posted until April 30, 2023. You may download forms 300, 300A, 301 from OSHA’s Injury & Illness Recordkeeping Forms Web page here or contact IAMU at safety_faq@iamu.org http://www.osha.gov/recordkeeping/RKforms.html

Ladders are common everyday tools that many workers take for granted. As you read the safety guidelines, you may say: “I know that, that’s just plain common sense.” You can avoid a ladder injury if you think before you act and use ladders correctly. Your work will be easier and more productive, too. Most ladder related injuries are preventable, if you think before you climb. Click here for more information.
