On Nov. 8, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) published a proposed rule in the Federal Register titled Improve Tracking of Workplace Injuries and Illnesses. OSHA’s proposed rule would amend its recordkeeping regulations to add requirements for the electronic submission of injury and illness information employers are already required to keep under OSHA’s regulations for recording and reporting occupational injuries and illnesses. The official Federal Register notice may be viewed here.
