The OSHA Form 300A is the annual summary of work-related injuries and illnesses. When must an employer post this summary in the workplace?
Explanation
Section 14300.32 requires the annual summary to be posted in each establishment, in a conspicuous place where notices to employees are customarily posted, from February 1 to April 30 of the year FOLLOWING the year the records cover. It is a three-month window rather than a date, which is long enough that everyone - including employees on rotation, on leave, or working another site - has a real chance to see it. Each wrong answer bends one end of it: (a) starts before the summary has been reviewed and certified by a company executive; (b) starts before the year covered has even finished; and (d) leaves it up for eleven months, which harms nobody but shows the candidate has not learned the window.
