OSHA recordkeeping and injury/illness reporting rules have changed significantly in recent years as the result of COVID-19, new rules and policy changes. Mistakes can be costly and result in criminal sanctions. Beyond these initiatives, OSHA has myriad recordkeeping rules for occupational health and safety requirements in construction and general industry. Even non-mandatory records can be used against employers under the General Duty Clause or to prove knowledge. This session will help you improve compliance under applicable rules, develop proactive documentation strategies and retention programs, determine what document privileges apply (and when), and strategically develop effective auditing protocols.
