Text For Citation: 02 Item/Group: 001A Hazard:
29 CFR 1904.8(a): You must record all work-related needlestick injuries and cuts from sharp objects that are contaminated with another person's blood or other potentially infectious material (as defined by 29 CFR 1910.1030). You must enter the case on the OSHA 300 Log as an injury. To protect the employee's privacy, you may not enter the employee's name on the OSHA 300 Log (see the requirements for privacy cases in paragraphs 1904.29(b)(6) through 1904.29(b)(9)). Facility: When any employee incurred a work-related needlestick injury, the employer did not establish and maintain a specific program to record, and follow, needlestick injuries on the OSHA 300 log.
