Steroids are a class biological chemicals sometimes used to treat medical conditions and sometimes as a drug of abuse. They are not an incident, injury or illness so their existence is not OSHA recordable.

Is an injection OSHA recordable?

What is OSHA recordable is an injury requiring medical treatment beyond first aid. If an injection is given as part of treatment for an injury that was work related, then the injury may be OSHA recordable. However, if an injection is given as a precaution after a work related event, then the injury may not be recordable. An example might be a tetanus shot after stepping on a rusty nail at work.For any particular event, whether it is OSHA recordable should be determined by someone familiar with both the OSHA regulations on injury and illness recording, and with the specifics of the particular workplace and event. Never rely on advice in a form like this on to determine whether to enter any particular event in the OSHA Injury and Illness Log.

If you step on a nail at work is that OSHA recordable?

Maybe. An OSHA recordable injury is one that involves death, lost workdays, restricted workdays, and medical care that goes beyond first aid. If stepping on the nail meant you lost days from work, or your foot became infected and required medical care, it may be a recordable. If you went to the doctor, and he gave you a tetanus shot, and you returned to work your next scheduled workday, that may NOT be recordable. (A tetanus shot is a PREVENTION, not a treatment)
