January 1, 2015 – New Reporting Rules
OSHA Recordkeeping
You can report to OSHA by
Calling OSHA's free number at 1-800-321-OSHA (6742).
Calling your closest Area Office during normal business hours. 55 N. Robinson Oklahoma City, OK 73102 405-278-9560
Online: OSHA is developing a new means of reporting events electronically, which will be available soon at www.osha.gov/report_online
Electronic submission of injury and
illness data
Why????
Behavioral economics tells us that making
injury information publicly available will
“nudge” employers to focus on safety.
What does the rule require? Takes effect Jan. 1, 2017
Would require employers to submit logs to OSHA only
electronically(phased in over the next 2yrs).
OSHA will have a website established by the end of the
year.

Who has to report?
Establishments with 250 or more employees in industries
covered by the recordkeeping regulation must submit
information from their 2016 Form 300A by July 1, 2017.
These same employers will be required to submit
information from all 2017 forms (300A, 300, and 301)
by July 1, 2018.
Beginning in 2019 and every year thereafter, the
information must be submitted by March 2.
Who has to report?
Establishments with 20-249 employees in certain high-risk
industries must submit information from their 2016 Form
300A by July 1, 2017,
and their 2017 Form 300A by July 1, 2018.
Beginning in 2019 and every year thereafter, the
information must be submitted by March 2.
Anti Retaliation Protection
Prohibits employers from discouraging workers from reporting an
injury or illness.
Employers have to inform employees of their right to report work-
related injuries and illnesses free from retaliation
Employer’s procedure for reporting work-related injuries and illnesses
must be reasonable and not deter or discourage employees from
reporting
Prohibits retaliation against employees for reporting work-related
injuries or illnesses.
These provisions become effective August 10, 2016, but OSHA has
delayed their enforcement until Nov. 1, 2016 in order to provide
outreach to the regulated community.
