Washington — OSHA is no longer enforcing its COVID-19 recordkeeping and reporting requirements, the agency announced in a Feb. 5 memo.
The agency says it’s still enforcing other recordkeeping and reporting requirements in its 1904 standards.
In December 2021, OSHA withdrew the bulk of its emergency temporary standard for COVID-19 focused on health care workers but chose to keep enforcing the recordkeeping and reporting requirements.

Now, the agency “will not cite employers for violations of the requirement to establish, maintain, and provide copies of a COVID-19 log under 1910.502(q)(2)(ii) and (q)(3)(ii)-(iv) or to report COVID-19 fatalities and hospitalizations under 1910.502(r).”
