Under Public Law 91-596, all establishments that receive this mandatory survey must complete and return it within 30 days, even if they had no work-related injuries and illnesses during 2021. The instructions below outline the steps to complete the survey regardless of whether your establishment did or did not have injuries or illnesses in 2021.

________________________________________________________________________________________________



Steps to estimate annual average number of employees for 2021:


Step 1:

To calculate the annual average number of employees your establishment paid during 2021, you must calculate the total number of employees your establishment paid for all periods. Add the number of employees your establishment paid in every pay period during Calendar Year 2021. Count all employees that you paid at any time during the year and include full-time, part-time, temporary, seasonal, salaried, and hourly workers. Note that pay periods could be monthly, weekly, bi-weekly, etc.


Example:

Acme Construction paid its employees in 12 pay periods during 2021:


Pay Period Number of Employees Paid

Per Pay Period

  1. 30

  2. 0

  3. 35

  4. 37

  5. 37

  6. 40

  7. 43

  8. 42

  9. 37

  10. 35

  11. 30

  12. +26

392 (total number of employees paid over all pay periods)


Step 2:

Divide the total number of employees (from Step 1) by the number of pay periods your establishment had in 2021. Be sure to count any pay periods when you had no (zero) employees.

Example:

Acme Construction had 12 pay periods and paid a total of 392 employees during these pay periods.


392 divided by 12 = 32.67


Step 3:

Round the answer you computed in Step 2 to the next highest whole number. Write that number in the box for Section 1, Question 2 on the previous page.

Example:

Acme would round 32.67 to 33.





Steps to estimate total hours worked by all employees for 2021:


Step 1:

Determine the number of full-time employees at your establishment.



Example:

Of Acme’s 33 employees in 2021, 28 were full-time.

Step 2:

Determine the number of hours generally worked by a full-time employee for a year. Multiply the number of full-time employees you calculated in Step 1 by this number. This total number of full-time hours worked should exclude vacation, sick leave, holidays, and any other non-work time.

Example:

Each of Acme’s 28 full-time employees worked an average of 2,000 hours per year after excluding vacation, sick leave, holidays, and other non-work time. This works out to 40 hours per week for 50 weeks of the year.


28 full-time employees

X 2,000 hours per year

56,000 total full-time hours


Step 3:

Determine the number of hours of overtime worked by your full-time employees.


Determine the number of regular hours worked by your non-full-time employees. (Non-full-time employees include part-time, seasonal, and temporary employees.)


Add these numbers to the number you calculated in Step 2 above. This is the estimated number of hours worked by all of your employees, full-time and non-full-time, during 2021. Write this number in Section 1, Question 3 on the previous page.

Example:

Acme’s 28 full-time employees worked a total of 2,800 hours of overtime during 2021 and 56,000 regular hours. Acme’s 5 part-time employees worked a total of 2,716 hours during 2021.


56,000 full-time hours from Step 2

2,800 over time hours

+ 2,716 part-time hours

61,516 total hours worked



Section 3: Reporting Cases


Instructions:

  1. If you had NO cases with days away from work (Column H) and NO cases with days of job transfer or restriction (Column I), please proceed to Section 4: Contact Information.

  2. If you had cases with days away from work (Column H) or cases with days of job transfer or restriction (Column I), please complete Section 3. To identify the individual cases to report, follow these steps:

Step 1: Go to your completed OSHA Form 300.

Note each case that has a check in Column (H) or Column (I).
These are the only cases you should report.
See the illustration in Step 3 below.


Step 2: Fill out one Injury and Illness Case Form for each case that you identified in Step 1. You can find most of the information on a supplementary document such as the Injury and Illness Incident Report (OSHA Form 301), a workers’ compensation report, an accident report, or an insurance form.


Step 3: If more than one establishment is noted on the front cover under “Report for this Location,” be sure to look at all your OSHA Form 300’s to find which cases to report.

Shape24


Section 3 asks about injuries or illnesses with a check in Column H, Days Away from Work or Column I, Job Transfer or Restriction, of your Log.




Shape25













Step 4: We have designed this survey to ensure that you do not have to report more than 8 cases. If you have more than 8 cases, please go to Section 5: If You Need Help . . . at the back of this booklet and call the phone number(s) listed for your State for assistance. If you need additional Injury and Illness Case Forms, you may either photocopy a blank form or go to Section 5: If You Need Help . . . at the back of this booklet and call the phone number(s) listed for your State.
