- A. UOSH has incorporated, by reference, 29 CFR 1904, Recording and Reporting Occupational Injuries and Illnesses, with a few exceptions. Refer to Subsection R614-1-4(A)(1).
- B. Regardless of size or type of operation, accidents and fatalities must be reported to UOSH in accordance with the requirements of Subsection R614-1-5(B).
- C. Equivalent Form for OSHA 301 Injury and Illness Report Form (OSHA 301form). For employers required to keep OSHA injury and illness logs, other reports may be used as an equivalent form for the OSHA 301 form if it contains the same information, is readable and understandable, and is completed using the same instructions as the OSHA 301 form it replaces. Examples of such reports include the Employer's First report of Injury or Illness from (Utah Industrial Accidents Form 122), workers' compensation; and insurance reports.
D. Statistical Program.
- 1. Section 34A-6-108 of the Utah OSH Act directs the division to develop and maintain a program of collection, compilation, and analysis of occupational safety and health statistics. The program shall consist of periodic surveys of occupational injuries and illnesses.
- 2. The sample design encompasses probability procedures, detailed stratification by industry and size, and a systematic selection within stratification. Stratification and sampling will be carried out to provide the most efficient sample for eventual state estimates. Some industries will be sampled more heavily than others depending on the injury rate level based on previous experience. The survey should produce adequate estimates using the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) where each industry sector and subsector is placed into the appropriate group of either goods-producing industries or service-providing industries. Full cooperation with the United States Department of Labor in statistical programs is intended.
