Form 300 log to ITA CSV, column by column

A Form 300 log holds about half of what the ITA case file needs. The rest comes from each case's Form 301.

Have the log open? Drop it in and get both ITA files with the errors repaired.

If your sheet has only the Form 300 columns, the converter fills what it can and marks the Form 301 cells for you to type in. It does not make them up.

Short answers

Can a Form 300 log alone produce the ITA 300/301 CSV?

No. The case file also needs Form 301 details for each case: date of birth, date hired, emergency room and hospital answers, and four short text answers about the incident.

Is the employee name submitted to the ITA?

No. OSHA says column B of the Form 300 log and items 1, 2, 6 and 7 of Form 301 are not submitted.
