If you create records to comply with another government agency’s injury and illness recordkeeping requirements, OSHA will consider those records as meeting OSHA’s Subarticle 3 recordkeeping requirements if OSHA accepts the other agency’s records under a memorandum of understanding with that agency, or if the other agency’s records contain the same information as this Subarticle 3 requires you to record. You may contact your nearest OSHA office or State agency for help in determining whether your records meet OSHA’s requirements.

NON-MANDATORY APPENDIX A TO SUBPART B-PARTIALLY EXEMPT INDUSTRIES

Employers are not required to keep OSHA injury and illness records for any establishment classified in the following North American Industry Classification Systems (NAICS) codes, unless they are asked in writing to do so by OSHA, the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), or a state agency operating under the authority of OSHA or the BLS. All employers, including those partially exempted by reason of company size or industry classification, must report to OSHA any employee’s fatality, in-patient hospitalization, amputation, or loss of an eye (see Section 71-339).
