What’s new: The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) recently issued a revised rule expanding submission requirements for injury and illness data reported by employers.
Why it matters: Under the rule, which takes effect on Jan. 1, 2024, commercial truck dealerships with 100 or more employees at a single “establishment” (defined as “a single location where business is conducted or where services or industrial operations are performed”) must:
- Electronically submit case-specific information from OSHA Form 300 Log (NEW), OSHA Form 301 Incident Report (NEW) and Form 300A-Summary of Work-Related Injuries and Illnesses to OSHA once a year
- Include their legal company name in electronic submissions from their injury and illness records
The requirements apply to establishments covered by Federal OSHA as well as establishments covered by states with their own occupational safety and health programs (i.e., State Plans).
What’s next: OSHA will begin accepting 2023 injury and illness data on Jan. 2, 2024; dealers must submit this data by March 2, 2024. This submission deadline is annual, and the March 2 deadline applies to the submission of the previous year’s injury and illness data. NADA will update members prior to all relevant deadlines.
Go deeper: OSHA will provide additional guidance on responsible organizations and compliance requirements. For more information, scan the QR codes.
