2021 OSHA 300 Logs Are Due

Recordable injury and illness entries from the previous calendar year must be logged on OSHA Form 300. The form 300A (which summarizes the recordable cases that occurred at an establishment) must be posted in an area accessible to employees from February 1st to April 30th of the calendar year following the recorded year.

Additionally, affected State and Local Government employers must report Form 300A data through OSHA’s Injury Tracking Application (ITA) online portal no later than March 2nd for the prior calendar year.

Recording COVID-19 Cases

COVID-19 can be a recordable illness if a worker is infected as a result of performing their work-related duties. However, employers are only responsible for recording cases of COVID-19 if all of the following are true:

The case is a confirmed case of COVID-19 (see CDC information on persons under investigation and presumptive positive and laboratory-confirmed cases of COVID-19);
The case is work-related (as defined by 29 CFR 1904.5); and
The case involves one or more of the general recording criteria set forth in 29 CFR 1904.7 (e.g., medical treatment beyond first aid, days away from work).

*Note that the COVID-19 ETS does not change the requirement to record injuries and illnesses under 29 CFR part 1904.

Recording COVID-19 Cases

For Healthcare

Employers covered by the recently rescinded Healthcare ETS are to continue to establish and maintain a COVID-19 log to record each instance identified by the employer in which an employee is COVID-19 positive, regardless of whether the instance is connected to exposure to COVID-19 at work. Reference 29 CFR 1910.502 Paragraph Q.

Healthcare ETS Recordkeeping

*See the recent IRMA update about changes to the Healthcare COVID-19 ETS.
