The University of the Virgin Islands' Safety In Paradise (SIP) Program will be offering a free informational session to guide USVI businesses in understanding the recordkeeping requirements of the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA).
UVI's Safety In Paradise is a free and confidential OSHA consultation service provided by the institution's - Center for Excellence and Leadership and Learning (UVI CELL). Services are available at no cost to private-sector employers and nonprofit organizations, according to the release.
Each year, OSHA designates March 2nd as the deadline for businesses to electronically submit their OSHA Form 300A data for the previous calendar year. The OSHA Recordkeeping Requirements Webinar is designed specifically to help local business understand the requirements of the OSHA 300 form.
UVI said the free session will cover the importance of keeping injury and illness records, complying with posting requirements, determining if they are required to electronically submit records, and offer guidance on how to use the OSHA 300 Log and electronically submit OSHA’s injury tracking application.
The one-hour virtual session will be held at 10 am on Friday, January 22, 2021 via Zoom. To register for this free session, go here.
As the session will only offer general guidance, businesses that may require specific analysis or evaluation of company records may submit a request to Safety In Paradise for services by emailing [email protected].
