How must an employer report a fatality or serious injury?

Call Federal hotline
Call Utah OSHA
Doesn't need to be reported
Only report if multiple people got injured

The correct answer is: Call Utah OSHA

Employers are required to report a fatality or serious injury to Utah OSHA within a specified timeframe—typically within 8 hours for a fatality and 24 hours for a serious injury. This requirement ensures that the necessary authorities are notified to investigate the incident and implement measures to prevent future occurrences. Reporting to Utah OSHA is part of the employer's accountability in maintaining a safe workplace and adhering to state and federal regulations regarding occupational health and safety. While there may be federal requirements to report incidents to a hotline, the specific requirement in this context pertains to the state level, making the option to report to Utah OSHA the most relevant choice. Additionally, the notion that reports are unnecessary unless multiple people are injured does not align with safety regulations, which mandate reporting for any fatality or serious injury regardless of the number of individuals involved.
