What OSHA says
Every employer who is subject to OSHA and has more than 10 employees is required to maintain records relating to employee injuries and illness. This illness and injury log may be kept on a form developed by OSHA, known as Forms 300 and 300A log and summary. Although the records are generally not filed with OSHA, they must be maintained at the worksite for a five-year period and made available to employees and OSHA inspectors.
Required log entries must be made within seven days.
OSHA defines recordable data as any new, work-related injury or illness which also meets one or more of the following conditions:
- Death or loss of consciousness
- Results in one or more days away from work
- Restricted work activity or job transfer
- Requires medical treatment beyond first aid, or
- Is a recordable condition listed in a regulatory supplement
