Osha 300 Log - answer✔The log of Work-Related Injuries and Illnesses (Form 300) is used to
classify work-related injuries and illnesses and to note the extent and severity of each case.
When an incident occurs, use the Log to record specific details about what happened and how
it happened.
Record those work-related injuries and illnesses that result in: death, loss of consciousness,
days away from work, restricted work activity or job transfer, or medical treatment beyond first
aid.
Osha 301 Report - answer✔Injury and Illness Report is one of the first forms you must fill out
when a recordable work-related injury or illness has occurred. Together with the Log of Work-
Related Injuries and Illnesses and the accompanying Summary these forms help the employer
and OSHA develop a picture of the extent and severity of work-related incidents.
Within 7 calendar days after you receive information that a recordable work-related injury or
illness has occurred, you must fill out this form or an equivalent. Some state workers'
compensation, insurance, or other reports may be acceptable substitutes. To be considered an
equivalent form, any substitute must contain all the information asked for on this form.
According to Public Law 91-596 and 29 CFR 1904, OSHA's recordkeeping rule, you must keep
this form on file for 5 years following the year to which it pertains.
Flexible Scheduling - answer✔Flexible scheduling allows employees the leeway to take time off
during work hours to care for dependent relatives or react to emergencies.
Flextime Schedule - answer✔allow employees to modify work schedules within specified limits
set by the employer. However, flextime generally does not lead to reduced work hours. For
instance, an employee may choose to work between 10 a.m. and 6 p.m., 9 a.m. and 5 p.m., or 8
a.m. and 4 p.m. All workers must be present during core hours—certain workday hours when
business activity is regularly high.
Flextime Benefits - answer✔lead to lower tardiness and absenteeism. Second, flexible work
schedules should lead to higher work productivity. Third, flexible work schedules benefit
employers by creating longer business hours and better service.
