Change in business ownership.
If the business changes ownership, the employer is responsible for recording and reporting work-related injuries and illnesses only for that period of the year during which the employer owned the establishment. The employer must transfer these records to the new owner. The new owner must save all records of the establishment kept by the prior owner, as required by WAC 296-27-02107, but need not update or correct the records of the prior owner.
