Site Review with Regard to MIOSHA Compliance -
The MITA Safety Director will come
to your office or job site to make sure your company is following all MIOSHA
safety procedures. There are two levels of safety reviews: Level One is a thorough
review of your company’s corporate safety program. Level Two consists of
an on-site review of a construction site to determine field implementation of
written safety programs and more. A written analysis is provided for both review
levels.
MIOSHA Injury / Illness Posting - MIOSHA requires that every company create an annual summary report (Form 300) of Injury and Illnesses that were recorded during the previous year and post them from February 1st to April 30th. MIOSHA also requires employers to fill out an Injury and Illness Incident Report (Form-301) within seven (7) calendar days of receiving information that a recordable injury or illness has occurred. Under the Administrative Rules, each company shall create, certify and post a summary at each establishment in a conspicuous place or places where notices to employees are customarily posted. Be prepared and have this information on hand, MIOSHA safety officers are asking for it. Click here to download the forms needed to fulfill the requirement.
Injury/Illness Reporting -
Several MITA members have inquired about which injuries and illnesses need to be recorded on their MIOSHA 300 logs. “Recordable injuries and Illnesses” means an injury or illness that meets the general recording criteria and therefore is recordable if it results in any of the following: Death,
Days away from work,
Restricted work or transfer to another job,
Medical treatment beyond first aid,
Loss of consciousness. Please click here to download a flow chart that should help you in your decision making and click here for the attached standard that will also provide further clarification.
