OSHA REMINDS EMPLOYERS TO POST INJURY / ILLNESS SUMMARIES

Post OSHA Form 300A on February 1

Beginning February 1, employers must post a summary of the total number of job-related injuries and illnesses that occurred last year. Employers are required to post only the Summary (OSHA FORM 300A) - not the OSHA 300 Log from February 1 to April 30, 2004.

The summary must list the total number of job-related injuries and illnesses that occurred in 2003 and were logged on the OSHA 300 form. The form is to be displayed in a common area wherever notices to employees are usually posted. Employers with 10 or fewer employees are exempt from the record keeping and posting requirement.

Copies of the OSHA Forms 300 and 300A are available on the OSHA website in either Adobe PDF or Microsoft Excel Spreadsheet format. The forms are found on the Recordkeeping page of the website. The OSHA website is also linked from the OABA website under the Related Links Tab.
