Still wondering if you are correctly entering illness or injury information on your company's OSHA log? Are you confident of when to record and when not to? This webinar will explain the regulatory requirements of OSHA's illness and injury recording and reporting standard. Attendees will be able to assess injuries, or illnesses, and determine whether or not it meets the criteria of a new case and when to keep a case open and what to do when the case is completed.

Webinar discussion will include first aid, employee involvement in your reporting system, and how to inform employees of their right to report work-related injuries, or illnesses, free from retaliation. The webinar will also include electronic reporting requirements, applicability, and updates to the standard. Attendees will also learn how to complete the OSHA 300, 301, and 300A forms and whose signature must be on the annual summary.

Who Should Attend the Webinar:

• If you are responsible for the entry of employee illness or injuries on the OSHA 300 log
• If your signature is on the 300A form
• If you have 11 or more employees at any time throughout the year (the threshold for reporting)
• If you have 20 employees in your utilities (water, electric, sewer, gas) departments (threshold for electronic reporting)
• If you are the person that needs to report a recordable injury to the staff person managing the OSHA 300 log

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
