Purpose <strong>of</strong> the Rule<br />

o To gather injury and illness data collection and<br />

analysis.<br />

o Public employers in <strong>Ohio</strong> are required to record and<br />

report work-related fatalities, injuries and illnesses.<br />

• Note: Recording or reporting a work-related injury, illness, or<br />

fatality does not mean the employer or employee was at<br />

fault, a <strong>PERRP</strong> rule has been violated, or that the employee<br />

is eligible for workers’ compensation or other benefits.<br />

o <strong>PERRP</strong> injury and illness recordkeeping and the<br />

BWC claims process are independent <strong>of</strong> each other.<br />
