Mich. Admin. Code R. 408.22114 - Recording criteria for cases involving medical removal under MIOSHA standards

Rule 1114.

(1) Basic requirement. If an employee is medically removed under the medical surveillance requirements of an MIOSHA standard, you must record the case on the MIOSHA 300 Log.

(2) All of the following apply to implementation of subrule (1) of this rule:

(a) How do I classify medical removal cases on the MIOSHA 300 Log? You must enter each medical removal case on the MIOSHA 300 Log as either a case involving days away from work or a case involving restricted work activity, depending on how you decide to comply with the medical removal requirement. If the medical removal is the result of a chemical exposure, you must enter the case on the MIOSHA 300 Log by checking the "poisoning" column.

(b) Do all of MIOSHA's standards have medical removal provisions? No, some MIOSHA standards, such as the standards covering bloodborne pathogens and noise, do not have medical removal provisions. Many MIOSHA standards that cover specific chemical substances have medical removal provisions. These standards include, but are not limited to, lead, cadmium, methylene chloride, formaldehyde, and benzene.

(c) Am I required to record a case where I voluntarily removed the employee from exposure before the medical removal criteria in a MIOSHA standard are met? No, if the case involves voluntary medical removal before the medical removal levels required by a MIOSHA standard, you do not need to record the case on the MIOSHA 300 Log.
