Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

OSHA requires that employers report work-related accidents. However, it allows the employer to conclude that the event was not job related and needn't be reported if the facts so warrant-such as if a worker breaks an ankle after catching his foot on his car's seat belt when parked on the company lot. Tom, Molly, and Leah have recordable conditions because they occurred while on duty or at a mandatory work function.
