Between February 1 – April 30, 2023, many employers that had 10 or more employees at any point during 2022 are required to post their Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) Form 300A. This employee count is based on the number of employees in the entire company, not per establishment. If an employer qualified as an exempt low-risk industry, they are not required to post. A full list of exempt low-risk industries, ordered by North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) codes, can be found here: https://www.osha.gov/recordkeeping/presentations/exempttable
All covered employers are required to post Form 300A, even if they didn’t have any recordable incidents in 2022. A company executive must certify the OSHA Form 300A and the form must be posted in a conspicuous location where notices to employees are customarily posted.
Form 300A Electronic Submission Required for Certain Employers by March 2
If an employer has 250 or more employees, or have 20-249 employees and are in certain high-risk industries (listed here: https://www.osha.gov/recordkeeping/naics-codes-electronic-submission ), they must submit their 2022 Form 300A data to OSHA by March 2, 2023. This data must be submitted electronically using OSHA’s Injury Tracking Application, which can be found here: https://www.osha.gov/injuryreporting/ita/
Employers that meet any of the following criteria DO NOT have to send their Form 300A information to OSHA:
- Employers that are exempt from OSHA’s routine recordkeeping requirements, as mentioned above.
- Employers that never had 20 or more employees during the previous calendar year, regardless of industry.
- Employers that had between 20 and 249 employees at some point during the previous calendar year but are NOT on the list of high-risk industries.
