Question: What if I am injured at work?

Answer:

If you are injured, call a supervisor for help. If the supervisor is not available, get medical assistance or call 911.

All employers must notify OSHA within 8 hours of a workplace fatality or within 24 hours of any work-related inpatient hospitalization, amputation or loss of an eye. [Employers under federal OSHA's jurisdiction were required to begin reporting by Jan. 1, 2015. Establishments in a state with a state-run OSHA program may have a different implementation date].
