OSHA's Form 301 is best described as which of the following?

• A. Injury and Illness Incident Report
• B. All of the choices are correct
• C. Summary of Work-Related Injuries and Illnesses
• D. Log of Work-Related Injuries and Illnesses

Answer: (A)

OSHA Form 301 is the Injury and Illness Incident Report. It is the incident-level form used to document detailed information about each workplace injury or illness—what happened, when and where it occurred, who was affected, the nature of the injury or illness, the body part involved, and any treatment provided. This level of detail supports the broader recordkeeping system, where the running log of incidents is kept on Form 300 and the annual summary is Form 300A. So while Form 300 and Form 300A serve different purposes (log and yearly summary), Form 301 is specifically the incident report, not the summary or the log.
