Many times, an injury occurs, and companies are not prepared as to how to handle and track this injury, especially when it comes to whether it is recordable or not per OSHA. Not all injuries need to be recorded on the OSHA 300 Log.

Beginning February 1, employers must post a summary of the total number of job-related injuries and illnesses that occurred last year. Minor injuries that are treated only by first aid do not need to be recorded. Employers are only required to post the Summary (OSHA Form 300A) -- not the OSHA 300 Log -- from Feb.1 to Apr. 30, 2022.
