Did you know that OSHA often requests documentation first during inspections? Poor recordkeeping can lead to citations—even if your workplace is otherwise safe. Key records to review regularly include: - Injury and Illness Logs (OSHA 300/300A): Are they accurate and complete? - Training Attendance Records: Are they up-to-date for all employees? - Inspection Reports: Are hazards identified and corrections documented? - Equipment Maintenance Records: Are your logs showing regular servicing? Keeping thorough records isn’t just about avoiding penalties. It helps identify trends, track improvements, and demonstrate your commitment to safety. If you’re not confident in your current documentation practices, we can help streamline the process to ensure you’re inspection-ready. #OSHAcompliance

OSHA TRIR How do OSHA measure safety performance of companies? The answer lies in TRIR. All top companies around the world actively use TRIT to measure their safety performance. OSHA's Total Recordable Incident Rate (TRIR) is a metric that measures a company's safety performance over the previous year. It calculates the frequency of recordable incidents per 100 full-time employees annually. TRIR is also known as the Total Case Incident Rate (TCIR) and the two are calculated the same way. TRIR helps OSHA: Monitor high-risk industries, Benchmark safety measures, Compare safety performance within industries, and Identify areas for improvement.
