What triggers OSHA reporting in Texas?

Federal OSHA requires you to report any fatality within 8 hours and any in-patient hospitalization, amputation, or loss of an eye within 24 hours (29 CFR 1904.39). Texas does not alter those rules, but state investigators often review your heat illness prevention training while they are onsite. Keep documentation showing when you made the report, who called OSHA, screenshots of the online submission, and what corrective actions followed. Store that packet with your TRIR calculations so trends stay visible.
