Is every work-related injury or illness that results in a loss of consciousness recordable?
['Injury and Illness Recordkeeping']
- Any injury or illness that results in loss of consciousness is considered a recordable event.
Every work-related injury or illness case involving a complete loss of consciousness (not merely a sense of disorientation or other diminished level of awareness) is recordable, regardless of the length of time the employee remains unconscious. Fainting episodes involving voluntary activities such as vaccination programs or blood donations are not recordable. However, fainting episodes that result from mandatory medical procedures such as blood tests or physicals required by OSHA standards are considered work-related events and, as such, are recordable if they meet one or more of the recording criteria.
