What
advice would you give the owners concerning the company's obligations under
OSHA to record accidents?
I would advise the owners
of this company to record every accident that has occurred within this
organization due to the fact that it is a requirement under OSHA guidelines to
properly record any accident or injury that occurs on the premises of an
organization. In addition, failure to record and properly report these
accidents can lead to severe sanctions for the organization, which include
civil liability suits filed by the staff members that have been injured in
accidents. The sanctions that an organization can suffer due to the reluctance
to properly record and report accidents, can also lead to the suspension of
that organization's business license, etc.
