Starting February 1 up to April 30 all companies that are subject to OSHA recordkeeping policies are required to post their OSHA 300a log.

What is an OSHA 300a log?

An OSHA 300a log is a summary of work-related injury and illnesses that occurred in 2009 and recorded in the OSHA 300 log.

 Who should post this?

Companies that employ more than 10 workers are required to keep an illness and injuries record. If your company presently has 10 employees but had more than 10 at one point during the last calendar year you are required to keep an injury and illness record.  Other businesses classified in a specific low hazard retail, service, finance, insurance or real estate industry listed in Appendix A to this Subpart B are exempted from keeping a log.

 Where should we post this?

This should be posted in a common area where it is easily noticeable to most of the employees.

Your OSHA 300A log must be posted from Feb 1 – April 30
