Last fall, federal OSHA launched a national emphasis program (NEP) on safety recordkeeping designed to enforce regulatory requirements - they're looking for employers who are underreporting injuries and illnesses. They've got their fine-toothed combs out, and now is the precisely the right time to get your recordkeeping in order.

In addition to helping you avoid costly Cal/OSHA citations, smart recordkeeping practices can also help you reduce injuries and boost profits by learning from past mistakes. You'll also discover how to nip potential PR nightmares in the bud -- before a disgruntled employee goes to Cal/OSHA or the press.

Join us on June 23 for an in-depth 90-minute webinar designed to help you track and record injuries and illnesses in compliance with the Cal/OSHA recordkeeping standard. Bring your managers along as we walk you through the key elements of an effective recordkeeping program. You'll learn:

• What to expect from the new focus on recordkeeping
• How to decipher the Cal/OSHA recordkeeping standard, and what you need to do to be in compliance
• The distinctions between Cal/OSHA Log Form 300, Cal/OSHA Form 301, and Cal/OSHA Form 300A, and how to use and complete them properly
• 5 key recordkeeping concepts to guide your document preparations
• 4 steps to determine Cal/OSHA recordability
• Which incidents must be reported -- and by when -- and which merely need to be recorded
• How to perform a recordkeeping audit and assess the working environment
• How to differentiate between medical treatment and first aid, and why the distinction matters
• How to apply smart recordkeeping strategies to a series of real-life cases
• Some of the frequently misunderstood terms in recordkeeping
