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 record? 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 it meets the 3 elements that make a case recordable. The webinar will also cover the criteria of a new case and when to keep a case open and what to do when the case is completed.

The webinar will also include electronic reporting requirements, applicability, and updates to the standard.
