1. Once every quarter

2. Monthly

3. Once a year in February

4. Daily

The correct answer is: Once a year in February

The Annual Summary of Work-Related Injuries and Illnesses is posted once a year in February. This summary is part of the recordkeeping requirements established by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) and serves to inform employees and the public about the safety performance of a workplace. The summary must reflect data from the previous calendar year and is specifically required to be displayed in the workplace, typically from February until April, which allows for visibility during periods when employees are most likely to notice it. By adhering to this schedule, employers ensure compliance with safety regulations and promote a culture of awareness regarding workplace safety. The other frequency options, such as quarterly, monthly, or daily postings, do not align with the regulatory requirements set forth by OSHA for this particular document.
