What are the recording criteria for medical removals?
['Injury and Illness Recordkeeping']
- Cases involving medical removals must be recorded on the OSHA 300 Log.
If an employee is medically removed under the medical surveillance requirements of an Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) standard, the employer must record the case on the OSHA 300 Log as either a case involving days away from work or a case involving restricted work activity, depending on how the employer decides to comply with the medical removal requirement. If the medical removal is the result of a chemical exposure, the case should be entered on the OSHA 300 Log by checking the “poisoning” column.
Some OSHA standards, such as lead, cadmium, methylene chloride, formaldehyde, and benzene, have medical removal requirements. If an employee is medically removed under a standard’s medical surveillance requirements, the case must be recorded on the OSHA 300 Log.
If the case involves voluntary medical removal before the medical removal levels required by an OSHA standard, the case does not need to be reported on the OSHA 300 Log.
