Recordable incidents, according to the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), refer to work-related injuries or illnesses that result in death, loss of consciousness, days away from work, restricted work, or medical treatment beyond first aid. These incidents must be documented by employers in their injury and illness records. The purpose of tracking recordable incidents is to ensure workplace safety and compliance with health regulations. Accurate reporting helps identify trends and areas for improvement in workplace safety practices.
