Right to Information About Injuries/Illnesses
OSHA's Recordkeeping rule requires most employers with more than 10 workers to keep a log of injuries and illnesses.
- Workers have the right to report an injury and review the current OSHA 300 log. Remember, it is against the OSHA law to retaliate or discriminate against a worker for reporting an injury or illness.
- Workers also have the right to view the annually posted summary of the injuries and illnesses (OSHA 300A)
