Rabies Vaccine? Recordable?
We had an employee dig into a dumpster and have a run in with a raccoon. They got scratched but not bitten. If they receive the rabies vaccine does that go on our OSHA log?

Yes, it's a recordable. OSHA specifies this in 1904.7(b)(5)(ii)(B)

Yes, recordable. The only shot that would not be recordable is the tetanus shot.
