§ 40-417. Reports by employers of statistical data - Summary
(1) To assure the availability of accurate, timely statistical
data concerning occupational health and safety in Oklahoma, all
employers as defined in Section 402 of this title shall submit
reports, on a form and in a manner prescribed by the Commissioner of
Labor. Reports shall include only those injuries arising from
employment within the State of Oklahoma.
(2) The Department may exempt from this requirement those
classes of employers for whose operations adequate records of safety
experience are already available or the Department may exempt any
employer from this requirement when, in the judgment of the
Commissioner, the submission of annual reports by such employer is
not necessary to carry out the purposes of this act and would be an
undue burden upon such employer because of size, the nature of its
operation or other special circumstances.
(3) The Department shall publish each year a detailed summary
of the statistical data received from employers. A copy of such
summary shall be available on request to each reporting
establishment required to file reports of disabling work injuries
and shall be made available to anyone having a legitimate interest
in the subject matter of the report.
