SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The OSH Act of 1970 requires the Secretary
of Labor to produce regulations that require employers to keep records
of occupational deaths, injuries, and illnesses. Executive Order 12196
requires Federal establishments to, ``Operate an occupational safety
and health management information system, which shall include the
maintenance of such records as the Secretary may require.''
The records are used for several purposes. Employers and employees
use the records to implement safety and health programs at individual
workplaces. Analysis of the data is a widely recognized method for
discovering workplace safety and health problems and tracking progress
in solving those problems. OSHA uses the injury and illness statistics
to help direct its programs and measure its own performance. Also,
individuals conducting safety and health evaluations and inspections
use the data to help direct their efforts to the hazards that are
hurting workers.
The rule, 29 CFR 1960.66, contains a ``note'' making it clear that
recording or reporting a work-related injury, illness, or fatality does
not constitute an admission that the Federal agency or an individual
was at fault or otherwise responsible for purposes of liability. Such
recording or reporting does not constitute an admission of the
existence of an employer-employee relationship between the individual
recording the injury and the injured individual. Recording or reporting
any such injury, illness, or fatality does not mean that an OSHA rule
has been violated or that the individual in question is eligible for
workers' compensation or any other benefits.

Chief, Headquarters Management Division, Office of Management Services
(M/MS), Bureau for Management, U.S. Agency for International
Development.
