Watch New Reporting Requirements Go into Effect January 1 Tailgate Safety Topic Don’t try new remedies during work hours. If you feel like experimenting with something new or different, do it over the weekend. Everyone reacts differently to cold and flu medication. Find one that works best and gives you the least troublesome side effects, and stay with it. Wash your hands often. We give this advice to kids, but everyone should remember it during cold and flu season. More cold viruses are transmitted from hand to hand, from doorknob to hand, from hand to mouth…than in any other way. The best cold and flu solution is prevention! n To learn more, visit: www.toolboxtopics.com Beginning January 1, 2015, there will be a change to what covered employers are required to report to the Occupational Safety and Health Administration. Employers will now be required to report all workrelated fatalities within 8 hours and all in-patient hospitalizations, amputations, and losses of an eye within 24 hours of finding out about the incident. Previously, employers were required to report all workplace fatalities, and when three or more workers were hospitalized in the same incident. The updated reporting requirements are not simply paperwork but have a life-saving purpose: they will enable employers and workers to prevent future injuries by identifying and eliminating the most serious workplace hazards. Employers have three options for reporting these severe incidents to OSHA. They can call their nearest area office during normal business hours, call the 24- hour OSHA hotline at 800-321-OSHA (800-321-6742), or they can report online at www.osha.gov/report_ online. For more information and resources, including a new YouTube video, visit OSHA’s Web page on the updated reporting requirements at www.osha.gov/ recordkeeping2014/index.html. Starting January 1, 2015: All employers* must report: ■■ All work-related fatalities within 8 hours Within 24 hours, all work-related: ■■ Inpatient hospitalizations ■■ Amputations ■■ Losses of an eye How to Report Incident ■■ Call 1-800-321-OSHA (6742) ■■ ■■ Call your nearest OSHA area office, during normal business hours (www.osha.gov/ html/RAmap.html) Visit http://www.osha.gov/report_online *Employers under Federal OSHA’s jurisdiction must begin reporting by January 1.
