In many industries, exposure to hazardous materials poses significant health risks. To make informed health and safety decisions, employees need access to accurate information regarding any potential exposure. In the U.S., federal law mandates that employers provide access to relevant medical records as outlined in the OSHA standard on access to medical records (Title 29, Part 1910.1020 of the Code of Federal Regulations). This standard supports employees exposed to toxic substances or harmful agents, aiding in the detection, prevention, and treatment of occupational diseases. Designated employee representatives, authorized in writing by the employee, can access their medical or exposure records under specific circumstances.
