Log of Work-Related Injuries and Illnesses is which OSHA form?

• A. OSHA's Form 300
• B. OSHA's Form 301
• C. OSHA's Form 300A
• D. OSHA's Form 301A

Answer: (A)

The form used to keep the ongoing record of each work-related injury or illness is OSHA Form 300. It functions as the running log where every incident is entered with details like date, employee, job title, where it occurred, the type of injury or illness, and the outcome (such as days away from work or job transfer). This is the primary record kept throughout the year and differs from the incident report form, which captures the specifics of an individual case, and from the annual summary form, which totals all cases for posting. So, when asked which form is the log, the answer is OSHA Form 300.
