Every year between February 1 and April 30, employers across the U.S. are required by OSHA (Occupational Safety and Health Administration) to post their Form 300A Summary of Work-Related Injuries and Illnesses. For many contractors, this isn’t just a regulatory requirement—it’s also a qualification hurdle inside ISNetworld®.
If your OSHA 300 and 300A recordkeeping logs aren’t up to date and correctly uploaded, your ISNetworld® grade can drop, putting valuable contracts at risk.
At Cascade QMS, we work with contractors daily who are navigating these requirements, and here’s what you need to know to stay ahead. Skip the read and get compliant TODAY! Call or request a call HERE.
What Are OSHA 300 and 300A Logs?
- OSHA 300 Log – A running record of all recordable work-related injuries and illnesses.
- OSHA 301 Incident Report – A detailed report of each individual incident.
- OSHA 300A Summary – The annual snapshot of injuries and illnesses that must be posted at your workplace from Feb. 1 to Apr. 30 and uploaded to ISNetworld®.
OSHA log templates available here: Recordkeeping – Recordkeeping Forms | Occupational Safety and Health Administration
Tip for ISNetworld® users: The 300A Summary is the document ISNetworld® requires for verification. Submitting incomplete or inaccurate logs is one of the most common reasons contractors get flagged.
Why ISNetworld® Requires OSHA Logs
Owners and clients rely on ISNetworld® safety statistics to evaluate contractors. Your Total Recordable Incident Rate (TRIR), Days Away, Restricted, or Transferred (DART) rate, and number of recordables all come from your OSHA logs.
If your numbers are missing or don’t line up, you risk:
- Rejected submissions
- Lower grades (which may prevent you from bidding on projects)
- Additional audits or corrective action plans
Uploading accurate OSHA 300 and 300A logs into ISNetworld® isn’t just compliance—it’s your ticket to staying competitive.
OSHA Deadlines You Can’t Miss
- February 1 – Post OSHA 300A Summary in the workplace.
- February–April – Upload 300A to ISNetworld® (and other platforms like Avetta®, Veriforce®, or PEC if required by clients).
- April 30 – Last day to have the 300A visibly posted.
Failing to meet these deadlines can result in OSHA penalties and client disqualification inside ISNetworld®.
Common Mistakes Contractors Make
- Not matching OSHA logs with ISNetworld® data – Even small errors in TRIR or employee hours worked can trigger rejections.
- Assuming supervisors know what’s recordable – Without training, minor errors snowball into rejected submissions.
- Posting late – OSHA inspectors and clients notice when deadlines aren’t met.
- Treating recordkeeping as an afterthought – Logs should be reviewed monthly, not rushed at year-end.
