An establishment may keep sharps logs with employees names on them. However, if the log is made available to any other persons, the establishment must withhold any information that directly identifies an employee or that could reasonably be used to identify the employee.
How are needlestick and sharps injuries recorded? All wounds caused by contaminated or potentially contaminated sharp objects must initially be recorded on the OSHA log as injuries. If the worker did not miss any time from work or require job restrictions or a job transfer, then the other recordable category is used.
What to do if you receive a sharps injury Encourage the wound to gently bleed, ideally holding it under running water. Wash the wound using running water and plenty of soap. Dont scrub the wound while you are washing it. Dont suck the wound. Dry the wound and cover it with a waterproof plaster or dressing.
The sharps injury log must contain, at a minimum, the type and brand of device involved in the injury (if known), the department or work area where the exposure incident occurred, and an explanation of how the incident occurred.
