The OSHA 300 log kept right all year — and the 300A summary ready for electronic submission

For construction contractors with 20 to 249 employees: foremen report incidents from the jobsite, the safety lead decides if a case is recordable, the 300 log and 301 reports fill themselves, and in January the 300A summary and the upload file for OSHA's electronic submission are ready.

Example (fictional data)

Concrete contractor, 85 employees, three active sites. March: laceration needing stitches — recordable, entered on the 300 log. June: sprained ankle with two days away — days counted until return. January: 300A summary ready for posting on February 1, upload file prepared for electronic submission.

How it works

Construction employers above the small-company threshold must keep an OSHA 300 log of work-related injuries and illnesses, a 301 incident report for each recordable case, and a 300A annual summary that is posted at the workplace. Establishments in construction with 20 to 249 employees must also submit their 300A data to OSHA electronically every year. For a contractor with several jobsites, keeping all of this right during a busy season is a real job.

In many companies the log lives in a spreadsheet kept by the office manager or the safety lead, and incidents reach it days later, if at all. When January comes, someone reconstructs the year from emails and texts. OSHA 300 Desk keeps the log current from the day of the incident.

When something happens on site, the foreman opens the app and reports it: who, where, what happened, the body part, first aid given, photos and witnesses. The safety lead gets the report immediately and goes through a guided check — medical treatment beyond first aid, days away, restricted work or job transfer — to decide whether the case is recordable. The decision and its reason are stored with the case.

Recordable cases go on the 300 log of the right establishment automatically, and the 301 report is filled from the same information. Days away and restricted days are counted until the worker returns. Privacy cases are marked so that the employee's name is not shown on the log.

At the end of the year the service prepares the 300A summary for each establishment with the totals, ready for signature by a company executive and posting from February 1 to April 30. It also prepares the file for OSHA's electronic submission in the format the agency asks for, so the upload takes minutes.

Records are kept for the required years by establishment. When an inspector asks for the log, or an owner or general contractor asks for your incident rates in a prequalification form, the numbers are already there.

Setting up takes one afternoon: establishments, employee counts, hours worked and the people allowed to report and review incidents.

Many contractors also need these numbers outside OSHA. General contractors and owners ask for injury and illness rates in prequalification forms, insurers ask for them at renewal, and some public owners require them in bids. The service calculates the rates from the log and the hours worked you enter, so the numbers in every form are the same and come from one place.

The service helps keep records from your reports; the employer remains responsible for recordkeeping decisions and for the submission. We are not affiliated with OSHA or the U.S. Department of Labor.

Questions

Who needs this?

Construction contractors who keep an OSHA 300 log and submit 300A data electronically, typically with 20 to 249 employees per establishment.

Does it decide what is recordable?

It guides the safety lead through the criteria and stores the decision; the employer decides.

Does it submit to OSHA for us?

No. It prepares the upload file; your company submits it.

Can foremen report from the jobsite?

Yes, on the phone, with photos and witnesses, the same day.

Can I use it already?

Not yet. The service is in preparation, and we are checking whether contractors need it.
