What action is required if an employee injury on the job requires only first aid by an insured contractor?

File a report with OSHA

Is not required to file a report

In this situation, the rule is that injuries needing only first aid are not external-reporting events. OSHA’s rules for recording and reporting injuries focus on those that require medical treatment beyond first aid or result in lost work time, hospitalization, amputation, or loss of an eye. If an injury is truly only first aid, there’s no requirement to file a report with OSHA or to notify the workers’ compensation insurer as a claim. You may choose to document the incident internally for safety records, but there’s no external reporting obligation.
