The Forms Packet booklet includes the forms needed for maintaining occupational injury and illness records. Many, but not all, employers must complete the OSHA injury and illness recordkeeping forms. Your company may need to submit your information online through the Injury Tracking Application (ITA). Click on that link for help determining if your establishment is required to electronically submit 300A and 300/301 data through the ITA.

First Aid only cases do not go on the OSHA Log.
Remember that the OSHA Log is a different system than your Workers Compensation Insurance system. They are independent of each other, but cases that are OSHA Recordable can be, (and in my experience often are) Workers Compensation cases. (But they do not have to be.)

The Summary, a separate form (Cal/OSHA Form 300A) shows the totals for the year in each category. At the end of the year, post the Summary in a visible location so that your employees are aware of the injuries and illnesses occurring in their workplace.
Safety Is About People - Not Penalties
Federal osha penalty amounts are 'SERIOUS'
While compliance with OSHA standards is essential, the true purpose of any safety program is to protect people and enable business success. The information below provides context on regulatory penalties and common compliance focus areas. OSHA penalties should not be the primary reason for implementing or improving a safety program. The real cost of workplace injuries has little to do with fines and everything to do with people and consequences that can last a lifetime.
Serious injuries happen in seconds - an unguarded machine leading to an amputation, a lockout/tagout failure resulting in a crushing injury, or exposure hazards causing long-term illness. For families, the impact can mean lost income, ongoing medical care, and permanent changes to daily life. For companies, a single serious incident can cost millions through medical expenses, legal costs, production disruption, turnover, and damage to morale and reputation.
Strong safety programs exist to prevent these outcomes by identifying hazards early and controlling risks before someone gets hurt and working every day to improve. Compliance matters, but protecting people in a business that thrives is the real objective.
OSHA establishes maximum civil penalty amounts as follows:
2025 Federal OSHA Maximum Penalty Amounts
Serious, Other-Than-Serious, Posting Requirements
$16,550 per violation
Failure to Abate
$16,550 per day beyond the abatement date
Willful or Repeated
$165,514 per violation
Penalty amounts are adjusted based on the gravity of the violation:
Severity + Probability = Gravity-Based Penalty (GBP)
Fines are temporary. The impact of a serious injury or fatality is not.
