4 Reporting Incidents

This chapter contains the following topics:

4.1 Understanding Regulatory Incident Reporting

The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) is an agency created in 1970 by the United States Congress to help employers and employees reduce the number of job injuries, illnesses, and deaths. Many other countries around the world have similar agencies dedicated to the same mission. OSHA requires employers to record and report work-related injuries, illnesses, and fatalities.

The Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) of the U.S. Department of Labor is a Federal agency responsible for measuring working conditions and other economic and market indicators. The BLS Injuries, Illnesses, and Fatalities (IIF) program gathers and reports the statistics related to work-related injuries, illnesses, and fatal incidents and analyzes how these statistics vary by key demographics. The information it collects from employers is very similar to the information collected by OSHA.

To support the reporting requirements for OSHA and the BLS, the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Health and Safety Incident Management system provides the following reports:

  • OSHA Form 300: Log of Work-Related Injuries and Illnesses.

  • OSHA Form 300A: Summary of Work-Related Injuries and Illnesses.

  • OSHA Form 301: Injury and Illness Incident Report.

  • Survey of Occupational Injury and Illness Form (BLS-9300 N06).

4.2 Generating the OSHA 300 Log Report and OSHA 300A Summary Report

This section provides an overview of the OSHA 300 Log report and the OSHA 300A Summary report and discusses how to:

  • Run the OSHA 300 Log report.

  • Set processing options for OSHA 300 Log report (R54HS300).

  • Run the OSHA 300A Summary report.

  • Set processing options for OSHA 300A Summary report (R54HS300A).

4.2.1 Understanding the OSHA 300 Log Report and the OSHA 300A Summary Report

Use the OSHA 300 Log report to classify and report work-related injuries and illnesses, including what happened, how it happened, and the severity and extent for each case.

Use the OSHA 300A Summary report to total the detailed case information for each establishment for each calendar year. Employers must post the summary from the previous year in a place where workers can view the report.

4.2.2 Running the OSHA 300 Log Report

Select Periodic Processing (G54HS20), OSHA 300 Log Report.

4.2.3 Setting Processing Options for OSHA 300 Log Report (R54HS300)

Processing options enable you to specify the default processing for programs and reports.

4.2.3.1 Process

1. Enter Reporting Century/Year

Enter the century and year that the system uses for OSHA reports. If you leave this processing option blank, the system uses the current century and year date.

4.2.4 Running the OSHA 300A Summary Report

Select Periodic Processing (G54HS20), OSHA 300A Summary Report.

Before you run the OSHA 300A Summary Report, you need to enter an establishment condition record for each establishment for each calendar year that you report. The report cannot retrieve data without the establishment condition record. You can access Establishment Conditions program (P086011) from the Health and Safety Incident Setup menu (G54HS41). Enter an establishment condition record even if nothing unusual happened during the calendar year. The report will not process unless you enter an establishment condition for the establishment and the calendar year being reported on.

(Release 9.1 update) You can associate a company with the establishment in the P086011 program. This association of company and establishment can be leveraged in the Incident Master program (P54HS00) to default in the company based on the establishment using this relationship. Use the P086011 program to record a change reason if you are re-submitting the electronic version of the 300A to OSHA. The program will use the most recent change reason recorded.

Use the Establishment Condition program (P086011) to enter the following additional information about an establishment:

  • Maximum Size

    Enter a code that represents the maximum number of employees that have worked at an establishment at any point in the reporting year.

  • Form Exit Establishment Information

    Use this form exit to associate a company with an establishment and to define the establishment type. This information is used when submitting an electronic file to OSHA for the 300A report.

  • Row Exit Change Reason

    Use this row exit to record a reason why you are re-submitting an electronic file to OSHA. If there is more than one change reason given for the same establishment/year/report type combination, the re-submitted electronic file will use the one with the highest sequence number.

4.2.5 Setting Processing Options for OSHA 300A Summary Report (R54HS300A)

Processing options enable you to specify the default processing for programs and reports.

4.2.5.1 Process

1. Enter Reporting Century/Year

Enter the century and year that the system uses for OSHA reports. If you leave this processing option blank, the system uses the current century and year date.

2. Specify where safety hours and average number of employees are retrieved from

Specify how the system retrieves the safety hours. Values are:

Blank: Retrieve safety hours and from the Incident Safety Hours table (F54HS20). If you leave this processing option blank, the system uses safety hour totals from the F54HS20 table. You need to populate the table with your monthly safety hours for each year being analyzed for each establishment.

1: Retrieve pay records from the Employee Transaction History table (F0618). If you select 1, the system uses the payroll records to determine safety hours from the F0618 table. The system uses PDBA codes to account for vacation or leave time, which are not considered part of safety hours.

2: Consider safety hour totals in the Incident Safety Hours table (F54HS20) an override to pay records in the Employee Transaction History table (F0618). If you select 2, the system first searches the safety hours in the F54HS20 table to find a record for establishment unit and year being analyzed. If the system finds a match, it uses the information in the table. If it does not, the system searches for any data in the F0618 table.

3. Company Executive Name

Enter the company executive name that the system displays on the OSHA 300A report.

4. Title

Enter the title of the company executive that the system displays on the OSHA 300A report.

5. Phone Number

Enter the phone number for the company executive that the system displays on the OSHA 300A report.

6. Date

Enter the date that the system displays on the OSHA 300A report. If you leave this processing option blank, the system uses the system date.

7. Report Output (Release 9.1 Update)

Use this processing option to generate both the OSHA form 300A electronic CSV format and the standard selected UBE format (PDF, RTF, HTML, and so on). Values are:

Blank: Generate only the standard selected UBE format.

1: Generate both the electronic CSV format and the standard selected UBE format.

8. File Path for Electronic CSV Format (Release 9.1 Update)

Enter the location where the system will save the OSHA 300A electronic CSV format. You must define this location when you request the electronic CSV format.


Note:

The file path is a server path when the report is generated on a server. To specify a local path you need to install the JD Edwards application locally.

9. File Name for Electronic CSV Format (Release 9.1 Update)

Use this optional processing option to define the name of OSHA 300A CSV file. If the processing option is blank, the system generates a file name.


Note:

OSHA - 300 Injury and Illness Audit Report (R086020) is generated when the processing options are set to generate the CSV file. The audit report shows any validation error between the CSV file and the OSHA data standards for electronic submission.

4.3 Generating the OSHA 301 Injury/Illness Report (R54HS301)

This section provides an overview of the OSHA 301 Injury/Illness report and discusses how to:
