10 CAL/OSHA RECORDKEEPING: Beyond Forms 300 and 300A Supplemental Materials 1. Recordkeeping: Don t Forget to Put It in Writing Employer Resource Institute 2. Major Differences Between the California and Federal Recordkeeping Standards From Cal/OSH link: EMPLOYER RESOURCE INSTITUTE (8)
11 Recordkeeping: Don t Forget to Put It in Writing Recording work-related injuries and illnesses may not be your favorite safety-related task, but it s essential. Carefully kept records not only provide Cal/OSHA with the documentation it needs but also offer you a valuable source of information to plan your company s safety future. In this article we ll look at your legal requirements. Recordkeeping Basics At the heart of the recordkeeping activity is Cal/OSHA Form 300, the Log of Work-Related Injuries and Illnesses. It s used to classify occupational injuries and illnesses and to note the extent and severity of each case, and you must record specific details about each incident in the log. The summary (Form 300A) shows the totals for the year in each category. At the end of the year, you must post the summary in a visible location. A log and summary must be kept for each establishment or site. If you operate more than one establishment, a separate log and summary must be maintained for each physical location that is expected to be in operation for a year or longer. Note that your employees have the right to review your injury and illness records. It s important to understand that employees whose incidents are listed on the log are not necessarily eligible for workers compensation or other insurance benefits. Be aware, too, that listing a case on the log does not imply that you or your employees were at fault or that a Cal/OSHA standard was violated. Is the Injury or Illness Work-Related? This question is basic but not necessarily easy to answer. Here s what Cal/OSHA says: Workrelatedness is presumed for injuries and illnesses resulting from events or exposure occurring in the workplace, unless an exception specifically applies. The work environment includes the establishment and other locations where one or more employees are working or are present as a condition of their employment. Cal/OSHA requires you to record incidents that result in: death, loss of consciousness, days away from work, restricted work activity or job transfer, or medical treatment beyond first aid. Any job-related injury or illness diagnosed by a health-care professional must also be recorded as must any incident involving cancer, chronic irreversible disease, a fractured or cracked bone, or a punctured eardrum. Not considered medical treatments, and therefore not recordable, are: doctor or health-care professional visits for observation or counseling diagnostic procedures procedures that can be labeled first aid. Additional Criteria Cal/OSHA also requires you to record: a needlestick injury or cut from a sharp object that is contaminated with another person s blood or other potentially infectious material an incident requiring an employee to be medically removed under a Cal/OSHA health standard 2007 EMPLOYER RESOURCE INSTITUTE (9)
12 a tuberculosis infection that s shown by a positive skin test or a licensed health professional s diagnosis a hearing test revealing: 1) that the worker has experienced a Standard Threshold Shift (STS) in hearing in one or both ears and 2) the total hearing level is 25 decibels or more above audiometric zero in the same ear(s) as the STS. Privacy Please You should not enter the employee s name on the Cal/OSHA log in a number of situations, including: an injury or illness to an intimate body part or to the reproductive system an injury or illness resulting from a sexual assault a mental illness a case of HIV infection, hepatitis, or TB a needlestick injury or cut from a sharp object contaminated with blood or other potentially infectious material other illnesses, if the employee requests that his or her name not be entered on the log. Instead of making a notation on the log for these, you should indicate privacy case. Keep a separate, confidential list of the case numbers and employee names involved. Important Distinctions Among other key points for recordkeepers to keep in mind is the definition of restricted work activity. Cal/OSHA says it occurs when, because of a job-related injury or illness, an employer or health care professional keeps, or recommends keeping, an employee from doing routine job functions or from working the same workday length as before the incident. You may also wonder how to count days of restricted work activity or the number of days away from work. Count the number of calendar days the employee was on restricted activity or away from work, but not the day the incident occurred. If one incident involved both days away and days of restricted activity, enter the total number of days for each. You can stop counting restricted days once the total of either, or the combination of both, reaches 180. Four Steps to Recordkeeping Your recordkeeping duties under Cal/OSHA can be summarized in these four steps: 1. Within seven calendar days of receiving information about a case, decide if Cal/OSHA regulations require you to record it. 2. Determine whether the incident is a new case or a recurrence of an existing one. 3. Establish whether the case was work-related. 4. If the case must be recorded, decide which form you will complete as the injury and illness incident report. Note that you may use Cal/OSHA s 301 Injury and Illness Incident Report or an equivalent EMPLOYER RESOURCE INSTITUTE (10)
13 Major Differences Between the California and Federal Recordkeeping Standards California Standard Does not have a reporting requirement contained within the recordkeeping regulation. The California reporting requirement for serious occupational injury, illness or death, are contained within Title 8, Section 342 with no 30-day time frame limit from incident to death. Section Table 1, Note: Retention of existing California requirement for employers in SIC Code 781 (Motion Picture Production and Allied Services) to record occupational injuries and illnesses in California. Exceptions are provided for SIC 781 employers regarding time frames for recording and for providing access to records. Language added to Section (a) Note: Note clarifying the scope of the recording requirement for Recording of Needlesticks and Sharps Injuries. The note states that the requirements for recording needlestick injuries are not limited to health care and related businesses. Language added to Section : Retention of existing California requirement to help assure timely availability of records to employees, their representatives, and government representatives when records are kept elsewhere: Additional language states that when keeping records for multiple establishments at a headquarters or other central location employer must have: (b)(2)(C) the address and telephone number of the central location or headquarters where records are kept available at each worksite; and (b)(2)(D) personnel available at the central location or headquarters where records are kept during normal business hours to transmit information from the records maintained there as required by Section and Section Federal Standard Has a reporting requirement, for fatalities and multiple hospitalizations as a result of a work-related incident, contained within in the recordkeeping regulation. The reporting requirements are in section of the recordkeeping regulation. SIC Code 781 (Motion Picture Production and Allied Services) are not required to record occupational injuries and illnesses under the Federal OSHA standard. No such clarifying language included in the Federal OSHA standard. Not specifically provided for in the Federal OSHA standard EMPLOYER RESOURCE INSTITUTE (11)
14 California Standard Language added to Section (b)(7): Retention with modification of existing California requirement for employers to present or mail the annual summary to each employee who does not normally report, at least weekly, to a location where their annual summary is posted. Employers must present or mail the annual summary to the employees, for the establishment where the employees are linked for recordkeeping purposes [as described at (b)(3)]. Applies to employees who receives pay during the February through April posting period. Language added to Section (b)(8): States that for multi-establishment employers, there is no requirement for posting of annual summaries for those establishments where operations have closed down during the calendar year. Language added to Section (b)(2)(c): Requires access to current or stored copies of the Annual Summary, in addition to current or stored copies of the Cal/OSHA Form 300. Copies must be provided to employees, former employees, personal representatives, or authorized representatives by the end of the next business day. Language added to Section (b)(2)(C) Exception: Requires establishments in SIC Code 781 to provide the current or stored Cal/OSHA Form 300 or Annual Summary, within seven (7) calendar days rather than by the end of the next business day. Copies must be provided to employees, former employees, personal representatives, or authorized representatives. Federal Standard Federal OSHA standard relies on new longer posting period to assure availability of summary data to employees. Federal OSHA standard relies on new longer posting period to assure availability of summary data to employees. Same requirements except the Federal OSHA standard does not specify that copies of the Annual Summary must be supplied to the requestor(s). No equivalent requirement in the Federal OSHA standard EMPLOYER RESOURCE INSTITUTE (12)
15 California Standard Language added to Section (b)(2)(E)(2): States specifically what personally identifying information must be deleted when authorized employee representatives ask for copies of the Cal/OSHA form 301, Incident Reports, or equivalent forms. The personally identifying information that must be deleted is: Employee name; Employee address; Employee date of birth; Employee date of hire; Gender; Name of the physician; Location where treatment was provided; Whether the employee was treated in an emergency room; and Whether the employee was hospitalized overnight as an in-patient Language added to Section (C): Retention of existing California requirement (with modification for new privacy provisions) affirming the rights of employees and their representatives to bargain collectively for access to information relating to occupational injuries and illnesses in addition to that information mentioned in section Language added to Section (a)(b)&(c): Distinguishes between private and public employers with respect to the granting authority for variance petitions. Language added to Section (a): Provides government representatives access to the original recordkeeping documents and one set of copies free of charge. Federal Standard Section states generically what information must be included and also deleted when authorized employee representatives ask for copies of the Federal/OSHA Form 301, Incident Reports. Information to be included is the section title Tell us about the case on the OSHA 301 Form All other information on the 301 must be deleted Does not mention equivalent forms when referencing the Federal OSHA Form 301. No such language in the Federal OSHA standard. Section does not distinguish between public and private employers with respect to submitting variance petitions because the Federal standard, in Federal OSHA states, only applies to private employers. Section requires that copies of the records (not originals) be supplied to government representatives upon request, free of charge EMPLOYER RESOURCE INSTITUTE (13)
