Background & Context

3 stories

2.1

The difference between an OSHA-recordable injury and a reportable one.

Recordable injuries (OSHA 300 log entries) include any that require medical treatment beyond first aid. Reportable injuries — which trigger an immediate notification to OSHA — are limited to fatalities (within 8 hours) and inpatient hospitalizations, amputations, or eye losses (within 24 hours). The categories are not the same.

Why It Matters

Confusing the two leads to either over-reporting (creating audit triggers) or under-reporting (which is itself a citation-worthy violation). Knowing the distinction protects both the safety record and the regulatory posture.

2.2

The mechanics-lien clock starts before you think.

In most NV jurisdictions, the lien filing deadline runs from last day on the project OR last delivery of materials, whichever is later — but several states use a project-wide cutoff (substantial completion) regardless of when your specific work ended. Counting the wrong start date is the leading cause of waived liens.

Why It Matters

A blown lien deadline drops your collateral down to a personal-guaranty claim, which often means recovery cents on the dollar. The window is short — 60 to 120 days in most states.

2.3

When prevailing-wage rules apply to your project.

Federal Davis-Bacon applies to projects with federal funding above a threshold; state "little Davis-Bacon" laws apply to state-funded projects with their own thresholds. The trap: rules apply to the work, not the contract — a privately funded portion of a project with any covered funding is subject to coverage on the whole.

Why It Matters

Wage-rate violations carry back-pay liability, debarment from future public bidding, and personal liability for officers in many states. The audits look back years.
