Comment on OSHA 300 Forms: Identify Common Injuries and Avoid Fines by Stephen Dauchert

Brian,

Great question. Maybe to make it more clear we should have said, injuries that only require first aid are not reportable. With that said, OSHA defines first aid as:

“If the incident required only the following types of treatment, consider it first aid. Do NOT record the case if it involves only:
* using non-prescription medications at non- prescription strength;
* administering tetanus immunizations;
* cleaning, flushing, or soaking wounds on the skin surface;
* using wound coverings, such as bandages, BandAidsTM, gauze pads, etc., or using SteriStripsTM or butterfly bandages.
* using hot or cold therapy;
* using any totally non-rigid means of support, such as elastic bandages, wraps, non-rigid back belts, etc.;
* using temporary immobilization devices while transporting an accident victim (splints, slings, neck collars, or back boards).
* drilling a fingernail or toenail to relieve pressure, or draining fluids from blisters;
* using eye patches;
* using simple irrigation or a cotton swab to remove foreign bodies not embedded in or adhered to the eye;
* using irrigation, tweezers, cotton swab or other simple means to remove splinters or foreign material from areas other than the eye;
* using finger guards;
* using massages;
* drinking fluids to relieve heat stress”

The above is taken from OSHA: http://www.osha.gov/recordkeeping/new-osha300form1-1-04.pdf [page 3]

If you have a specific scenario or question that you’re unsure about, let us know. Thanks!

Am I reading this right? Non reportable injuries states injuries that require first aid. Shouldn’t this read injuries that don’t require first aid?

I have been shopping for a solution to HVAC copper theft because I live in Texas and don’t want to perrish in the summer time if my ac gets stolen. There is a product that I found called copperwatcher and it is a well thought out product that’s reliable. Pressure sensors with built in supervision so they can’t be bypassed by twisting wires and power supervision that knows the difference between a thief pulling the disconnect and a neighborhood power outage. Pretty cool and worth a look. http://www.copperwatcher.com

Thanks so much for the kind words, Norman! It was great to be with you and the group last week and I’m glad the message resonated with you. You’re doing very important work in SC with kids who are blessed to have you!

I had the pleasure of attending Kevin’s session at the CCCA last week. For me, this was the most inspiring and thought-provoking session of the entire conference. Kevin is a gifted speaker with a great vision for using one’s business to serve others.

Many regards,
