OSHA Reports

Previous  Top  Next

The OSHA reports should be submitted or completed every time an employee suffers an injury or illness that meets the reporting requirements set by Occupational Safety and Health Agency. The reporting requirements of the OSHA reports are programmed into the system. The OSHA reports are triggered based on responses in the Supervisor Form. If an employee injury was involved, the user is asked to answer a number of OSHA related questions. Based on the user's response the system will notify the user if the incident must be reported to OSHA. If the incident is reportable to OSHA, the user will be able to generate a completed OSHA 301 log. In addition the incident will be automatically added to the OSHA 300 and 300a logs. The following scenarios will make an incident reportable to OSHA:

1.

In the Employee Injury Section selecting any of the following check boxes in the Consequences from Injury/Illness field:

·

Death

·

Missed a Day of Work or Next Shift

·

Restriction of Work or Transfer to Another Job

·

Medical Treatment Beyond First Aid

·

Loss of Consciousness

·

Occupational Illness

2.

In the Employee Injury Section selecting yes to the question "Was injury or illnesses a needle stick or other sharp implement injury, hearing loss or tuberculosis?"

Any incident reportable to OSHA will be included in the OSHA 300 and OSHA 300a logs. All of the OSHA reports can be generated from the Regulatory Reports section of the Incident vertical menu. In addition the OSHA 301 report can be generated from the Supervisor Form of the incident.
