Reporting Injuries, Accidents & Illnesses
Employers are required by various federal and state laws to document and report certain injuries and illnesses that occur in the workplace. For example, the federal Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSH Act) requires employers to complete certain forms to record incidents of work-related injuries and illnesses. State workers’ compensation laws also may require employers to report workplace fatalities or other accidents, often within a short time period (e.g., less than one week).
We provide sample forms, reports, and worksheets to document workplace injuries and illnesses. Depending on the specific compliance requirements, an employer may need to document particular items, such as the circumstances of the injury or the employees' hours lost due to injury.
