Question: Do I have to respond to a BLS survey form if I am normally exempt from keeping OSHA injury and illness records?

Answer: Yes, even if you are exempt from keeping injury and illness records under § 1904.1 to § 1904.3, the BLS may inform you in writing that it will be collecting injury and illness information from you in the coming year. If you receive such a letter, you must keep the injury and illness records required by § 1904.5 to § 1904.15 and make a survey report for the year covered by the survey.

Standard Number: 1904.41
