What is OSHA Form 300A?

1. A summary of the previous year’s work-related injuries

2. An injury/illness log

3. A report on employee training sessions

4. A safety compliance checklist

The correct answer is: A summary of the previous year’s work-related injuries

OSHA Form 300A is indeed a summary of the previous year’s work-related injuries. This form is used by employers to compile and report data regarding work-related injuries and illnesses that occurred in the workplace over the course of the previous calendar year. It includes information such as the total number of hours worked by all employees and a summary of the injuries and illnesses recorded. This summary must be posted in a visible location in the workplace for the entirety of February through April each year, providing transparency about workplace safety and health performance. The other options, while related to workplace health and safety, do not accurately describe Form 300A. The injury/illness log referenced in one of the options corresponds to OSHA Form 300, which details each incident reported. The report on employee training sessions and the safety compliance checklist do not pertain directly to documented injuries or illnesses in the workplace, making them unrelated to the purpose of Form 300A.
