OSHA Watch Question of the Month - July/August 2004

July/August Question of the Month: How long do we need to keep the monthly and annual facility checklists?

Answer: OSHA does not specify a length of time for keeping these records. We suggest keeping the Monthly Checklists for a year and the Annual Checklists for 3-5 years to demonstrate to an inspector that you are continually monitoring potential safety concerns in your practice.
