WELCOME to the Injury & Illness Reporting Mini-Course
It is our pleasure to provide this Free Tutorial to you.
This mini-course will show you everything your business must do to be in compliance with the OSHA Regulations at 29 CFR 1904: “Recording and Reporting Occupational Injuries and Illnesses”.There have been some enormous changes to this rule recently ... AND – This regulation applies to every single business in America (unless you have no employees).
So, what’s behind the curtain?
This is a self-contained OSHA compliance course where you can learn every aspect of the Injury & Illness Reporting Rule and then apply that information to your workplace.
The course will cover:
Applicability: See how your business is subject to this regulation, even if you have fewer than 10 employees.
Exemptions: There are two different partial exemptions.Which ones can you use?
Recordable vs. Reportable: They are two entirely different types of injuries and you need to respond to both of them right.
Postings: One of the first thing an OSHA agent will look for if they come by for an inspection.
Employee Involvement: Yes, there is an employee training component to this rule, and you must allow them access to some of your documents.
Electronic Reporting:
The newest twist in this regulation requires some businesses to report
their injury and illness data DIRECTLY to OSHA, electronically, even if
they have fewer than 250 employees.

Your Instructor
Business owners start companies to make money, not to become Environmental, Health and Safety (EHS) experts.
I’ve learned a few things about compliance during my 34 years in the hazardous waste business and I’ve seen the best and the worst compliance situations.
This is often the scenario: The person in charge of safety & environmental programs has 1 or 2 other hats to wear, and the EHS hat never seems to end up on top. The result is that compliance gets neglected - until the sh*t hits the fan.
EPA, DOT and OSHA rules are complex and confusing, and they apply to multitudes of organizations of every size in every sector of the economy. After seeing the insides of thousands of businesses, I estimate that 50% at best are in significant compliance. The rest are doing what I call “seat of the pants compliance”; just doing the bare minimum and hoping nothing bad happens.
Don't be like them.
I believe that you've read this far because you are concerned for worker safety and environmental protection at your company. My recommendation is that you enroll in this course because you are the kind of manager I like helping the most - You want to do the right thing, but you just haven't figured out where to begin.
Compliance actually is very simple, if you have someone to show you the way.
