Video Transcript

A new aspect of OSHA’s revise requirements addresses employees who work for pay or compensation in their homes. Injuries or illnesses that occur in these situations must be directly related to job performance to be considered work-related and not due to the general home environment setting. An injury or illness is a new case if the employee has not previously experience the recorded injury or illness of the same type that affects the same part of the body. An injury or illness is not a new case and therefore not recordable if signs and symptoms recur even in the absence of exposure. In these cases the incident should be recorded once. An injury or illness is recordable if it results from one or more of these general recording criteria death, days away from work, restricted work activity, transfer to another job, medical treatment, loss of consciousness and significant injury or illness diagnosed by a physician or licensed healthcare professional.
