What injury and illness data must be reported to OSHA?

Not all establishments must report the same information to OSHA.

Establishments with 250 or more employees (in industries covered by the 1904 recordkeeping regulation) must electronically submit to OSHA the 300A Summary of Work-Related Illness.

Establishments with 20-249 employees (in certain industries listed in Appendix A to Subpart E of Part 1904) must electronically submit information from OSHA Form 300A Summary.

Establishments with 100 or more employees (in certain industries listed in Appendix B to Subpart E of Part 1904) must electronically submit information from the 300 Log and 301 Forms in addition to the 300A.

Establishments with fewer than 20 employees at all times during the year do not have to routinely submit injury and illness information to OSHA.

Importantly, employers who are partially exempt from keeping injury and illness records will be required to submit recordkeeping data only if the Bureau of Labor Statistics notifies them in writing that they will be required to participate in information collection. OSHA can also still require employers to participate in a particular information collection under 1901.41(a)(3). OSHA will notify these employers in writing in advance of the year for which the records will be required.
