Title: Different Locations?
Type: Text Slide
Content:
- If an employee normally reports to an establishment and is injured there, the case goes on
that establishment’s log
- If an employee is injured or made ill while visiting or working at another of the employer’s
establishments, then the case must be recorded on the 300 log of the establishment at which the
injury or illness occurred (e.g., agency engineer)
- Cases for employees injured at another employer’s establishment go on the log of the
employee’s home establishment (e.g., traveling person)
Speaker Notes:
Unlike the private sector, it is common for most Federal agencies to have multiple establishments
throughout their national and regional offices. Under Part 1960, the term establishment means a
single physical location where business is conducted or where services or operations are performed.
Where distinctly separate activities are performed at a single physical location, such as in a
typical national or regional office of an executive branch department where headquarters for
several agencies or programs are housed, each agency headquarters operation must be treated as a
separate establishment. At the Department of Labor, for example, regional and national offices for
OSHA, the Employment Standards Administration, Employment and Training Administration, Employee
Benefits Security Administration, etc. would all be treated as distinct establishments for illness
and injury recordkeeping purposes. Typically, an establishment as used in Part 1960 refers to a
field activity, regional office, area office, installation, or facility.
