The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) is proposing to amend its occupational injury and illness recordkeeping regulation to require certain employers to electronically submit injury and illness information to OSHA that employers are already required to keep under the recordkeeping regulation. OSHA proposes to amend its regulation to require:

  • Establishments with 20 or more employees, in certain high-hazard industries, continue to electronically submit Form 300A Annual Summary information once a year to OSHA.
  • Establishments with 100 or more employees in the highest-hazard industries to submit Form 300 Log and Form 301 Incident Report information once a year to OSHA. These establishments would continue to be required to electronically submit information from their Form 300A Annual Summary.

In addition, establishments with 250 or more employees, not in designated high-hazard industries, would no longer be required to electronically submit recordkeeping information to OSHA.

Comments, along with any submissions and attachments, should be submitted electronically at https://www.regulations.gov/, identified by Docket No. OSHA-2021-0006, which is the Federal e-Rulemaking Portal. All comments must be submitted by the deadline of May 31, 2022. For more information, please see the Federal Register Notice.
