OSHA 300A notices - Have you posted yours?

The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) requires employers to post a summary of 2018 work-related injury and illnesses in a noticeable place from February 1 to April 30, 2019. Many employers with more than 10 employees—except for those in certain low-risk industries—must keep a record of serious work-related injuries and illnesses. But minor injuries that are treated only by first aid don't need to be recorded.

A Form 300 log is required for each physical establishment location that is expected to be in operation for at least one year. For employees who work from home, OSHA does not consider the worker's home to be an establishment for record-keeping purposes. OSHA considers the worker's establishment to be the office to which he or she reports, from which he or she receives direction or supervision, collects pay, and otherwise stays in contact with the employer. It is at this establishment that the log is kept.

If an employer recorded no injuries or illnesses in 2018 for that establishment, the employer must still report this on the log and post the notice.
