Annual Summary
At the end of each calendar year, you must:
- Review the OSHA 300 Log to verify that the entries are complete and accurate;
- Total the columns (enter zeros if a column has no cases.)
- Enter the company name, establishment name, address, annual average number of employees, and total hours worked by all employees.
- Correct any problems.
- Use the OSHA 300A or equivalent form to create an annual summary of injuries and illnesses from the OSHA 300 Log;
- Certify that the highest ranking manager at the location where the log is compiled has examined the OSHA 300 Log and believes, based on knowledge of the process by which the information was recorded, that it is correct and complete. If there is no management at the compiling location, any manager with jurisdiction over that location may conduct the examination of the OSHA 300 Log.
- Include the employee access and employer penalty statements found on the 300A form.
- Post a copy of the annual summary in each establishment in a conspicuous place or places where notices to employees are customarily posted. You must ensure that the posted annual summary is not altered, defaced or covered by other material. You must post the summary no later than February 1 of the year following the year covered by the records and keep it posted until April 30.
