Do I need to keep an OSHA log?

Yes, employers are responsible for reporting injuries and illnesses of all employees, including temporary employees, on their OSHA log if the injury or illness is work-related and meets the criteria for reporting (such as inpatient hospitalization, amputation, loss of an eye, or fatality). Employers must record and report all work-related injuries and illnesses of all employees, regardless of the duration of the employee’s employment or the type of employment agreement.
