But keeping a record of what happened, and why, is important so that you can correct hazards and prevent future injuries.
And in many cases, it's the law.
What you need to know
If your business has 11 or more employees, you generally are required to keep a log of work-related injuries and illnesses.
Oregon OSHA requires employers to post the OSHA 300A summary no later than February 1, and keep it posted through April 30. For remote workers not reporting to the workplace, the summary can be provided via access on a shared drive or via email.
