Annual OSHA Recordkeeping

Author: Anonym/Wednesday, February 3, 2016/Categories: Bulletin News, Compliance Corner , Federal Compliance Update

OSHA's Recordkeeping Standard, 29CFR1904, requires that certain employers maintain annual records of workplace injuries and illnesses. Records of workplace injuries and illnesses are maintained on an OSHA 300 Log each calendar year, and summarized on an annual summary log, or OSHA 300A Summary.  The 300A is required to be posted in the workplace every February through April to show records from the previous years' injuries and illnesses.  

Helping your company comply with OSHA regulations is one of the key benefits of ADP TotalSource®. If your company is not exempt from OSHA recordkeeping requirements, ADP will help you fulfill this responsibility by providing your company a preliminary 300 Log and 300A Summary at the end of January each year. The preliminary 300 and 300A Summary logs are available on MyTotalSource at https://intpeo.ga.adp.com/ts/workersComp/getOsha300Log.do

As the worksite employer, you may need to take additional steps to ensure your logs fully capture the information required by OSHA. The preliminary 300 and 300A Summary are based on Workers' Compensation data reported to TotalSource and may not contain all of the information necessary to complete the logs. The preliminary logs may be missing adequate details describing the injury or cause of injury. Additionally, since workers compensation and OSHA recordable injuries are not directly correlated, there may have been injuries at your workplace that were not reported to workers compensation, or denied by workers compensation, that should be included on your OSHA log. For example, OSHA requires that controlling worksite employer's record injury and illness data for temporary employees and sub contracted employees; TotalSource does not have access to this injury data and it will not be included on your preliminary log.   

If you have any questions about the information on your preliminary log, please contact your TotalSource Claims Service Representative at (800) 829-9306. If you have questions about OSHA recordkeeping requirements, please contact your TotalSource Risk and Safety Consultant.
