What this lesson covers
In this lesson, you'll learn to: apply the three tests that make a case recordable, separate first aid from medical treatment, state the record and report deadlines, and handle privacy cases and five-year retention. A case is recordable only if it passes three tests. It must be work-related, and it must be a new case. Then it must meet a general criterion, or a specific-case rule in 1904.8 through 1904.12.
