Which of the following is NOT a requirement of the OSHA 300 Log?

  1. Tracking work-related injuries

  2. Regular updates for a year

  3. Monthly reviews by staff

  4. Documentation of illness

The correct answer is: Monthly reviews by staff

The OSHA 300 Log is a crucial tool for tracking work-related injuries and illnesses in the workplace. It is designed to help employers maintain a record of incidents that occur over the course of a year and report them appropriately. The elements that are mandated for compliance with the OSHA 300 Log include the tracking of work-related injuries, documentation of illnesses, and ensuring that the log is regularly updated throughout the year. Monthly reviews by staff, however, are not a stipulated requirement for the OSHA 300 Log. While it is essential for employers to monitor and maintain accurate records of incidents, the specific requirement for monthly reviews does not exist in OSHA regulations. Instead, employers are expected to update the log on an ongoing basis as incidents occur and ensure that it reflects all relevant injuries and illnesses by the end of the calendar year. This distinction clarifies why the absence of a requirement for monthly reviews is the correct response to the question.
