Text For Citation: 03 Item/Group: 001 Hazard:
29 CFR 1904.29(b)(3): The employer did not enter each recordable injury or illness on the OSHA 300 Log and 301 Incident Report within seven (7) calendar days of receiving information that a recordable injury or illness had occurred: (a) On or about June 9-10, 2015, Central Iowa was under a heat advisory with heat indices in the the upper 90s and low 100s. An employee delivering mail on Route #9 at approximately 2:00 p.m. was feeling ill because of the heat, requested assistance from the Acting Postmaster in completing the route's delivery and was told to continue working. Although this employee was relieved at around 5:00 p.m., the employee continued to experience symptoms of heat induced illness the next day and called in sick. The incident was not recorded as a lost work day on the US Postal Service 300 log nor was an incident investigation conducted. The employee informed the supervisor he would not be in because he was still feeling sick from the day before.
