- The OSHA 300 Log provides space to record injury or illness that results in death.
Employers must record an injury or illness that results in death by entering a check mark on the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) 300 Log in the space for cases resulting in death. Employers must also report any work-related fatality to OSHA within eight hours, as required by 1904.39.
