Answer to Question 1

To fulfill part of the requirements established under the OSH Act, supervisors in industries where a high percentage of accidents and injuries occur must maintain safety and health records. It's important to note, however, that organizations that are exempt from record-keeping requirement  such as universities and retail establishments  still must comply with the law itself; their only exception is the reduction of time spent on maintaining safety records. Supervisors in selected industries must complete OSHA Form 300 to record accidents, injuries, and illnesses that are job-related. This information is then used to calculate the organizations incident rate. According to the act, any work-related illness (no matter how insignificant) must be reported on Form 300. Injuries, on the other hand, are reported only when they require medical treatment (besides first aid), involve loss of consciousness or restriction of work or motion, or require transfer to another job.
