This is a Migna Safety Solutions course with a Migna certificate of completion. It is not OSHA Outreach Training and does not include a Department of Labor card.

Recordkeeping is where a safety program meets a federal form, and it is one of the most commonly cited areas in OSHA's own enforcement data — usually not because employers are hiding anything, but because the recording decision is genuinely subtle. This course is for the person who maintains the Log. It covers who must keep records and who is partially exempt; the work-relatedness presumption and its nine exceptions; the new case test; the general recording criteria; the first aid list and why it is exhaustive; counting days away and restricted days; privacy concern cases; completing, certifying, posting, and retaining the annual summary; the 8-hour and 24-hour reporting duties and what is excluded from them; and employee access rights and the prohibition on procedures that discourage reporting. One idea runs through all of it: recordable is not the same as reportable, and neither is the same as compensable or anyone's fault. Issues a Migna certificate of completion.

Seat time is enforced on our servers. The clock is calculated from signed progress events rather than in your browser, so it cannot be sped up — a certificate that states 31 minutes of training means it. The 45 minutes shown above is that gate plus the quizzes and final exam, which are not on the clock.

This certificate does not expire on a clock

The standard behind this course sets no fixed retraining interval, so we do not print one. Retraining is triggered by events instead — a new hazard, a changed process, or an observed deficiency. Your employer or insurer may set their own interval, which is a real obligation but not a federal one.
