| COURSE DESCRIPTION: Dealing with OSHA 300/301 logs and other recordkeeping regulations isn't what gets you out of bed in the morning -- but it's a reality of the job. Unfortunately our often over-regulated, hyper-litigious business culture makes "butt covering" an important priority. You NEED to get it right so you don't get in trouble with OSHA and so you're protected against lawsuits. But there's a better reason for solid documentation. You WANT to get it right to create a safer workplace. Fact is the paper trail you create with injury reports, safety training records and internal audit documents can be a powerful tool to help you improve safety systems and protect your workers. This audio conference/webinar program will cover both the nitty-gritty details of how to stay in compliance AND how to take recordkeeping to the next level. Safety expert Bob Coffey will outline document retention requirements for a host of OSHA standards and explain what leading companies are doing to use that information to improve systems and reduce injuries. Participants will learn:
- When do you have to notify OSHA of an incident?
- How soon after an injury does it have to go on the OSHA 300 Log?
- How do reporting and recording requirements vary if an injury occurs while the employee is working (or driving) off site?
- How are reports and records managed best in multi-employer worksite situations?
- How long must mandatory records be maintained?
- Must audit records and near-miss reports be produced if OSHA requests them?
- Do disciplinary records ever have to be shared with OSHA?
- What is the best way to document training, and can these documents be used against a company in OSHA litigation?
- How can records actually keep employees safe?
- What can you do now to turn current documents into a safety improvement action plan?
