Last reminder for covered employers to submit 300A Summary data
Posted June 28, 2018
OSHA reminded employers about the July 1, 2018, deadline for submitting 2017 Form 300A data to the Agency.
Electronic submissions are required for establishments that are already tracking OSHA workplace injuries and illnesses and meet the following:
- The establishment has 250 or more employees; or
- The establishment has 20-249 employees and is listed in Appendix A to Subpart E as a high-risk industry.
OSHA is only requiring establishments to submit the 300A Summary data. The Agency will not accept information from the 300 Log or 301 Incident Reports at this time. Although originally OSHA had planned to collect this additional information from larger establishments, it is currently drafting a proposed rulemaking to reconsider, revise, or remove that provision.
Note that OSHA expects all covered employers to submit the data, even if they are located in a state that has not yet adopted the rule requiring the electronic submission. Establishments may submit the 300A Summary data using OSHA’s Injury Tracking Application webpage at www.osha.gov/injuryreporting.
Beginning in 2019 and every year after that, the submission deadline moves to March 2.
