Less Than 1 Week Remains to Report 2020 Employee Injury Data to OSHA

The U.S. Department of Labor’s Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) is reminding employers they must submit 2020 injury and illness data by March 2.

Employers required to submit the data to OSHA include those whose workers are classified in high-risk industries, such as facility service staff. Electronic submission of this data is required by establishments with 20-249 employees classified in the high-risk industries, as well as all establishments with 250 or more employees.

Under the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970, employers are responsible for providing safe and healthful workplaces for their employees. OSHA’s role is to help ensure these conditions for America’s workers by setting and enforcing standards, and providing training, education, and assistance.
