Yes, a case of dehydration can be considered OSHA recordable if it results in medical treatment beyond first aid, involves loss of consciousness, or leads to a significant change in a person's work status. If the dehydration is work-related and meets these criteria, it should be documented in the OSHA logs. Employers are responsible for evaluating the circumstances and determining if the incident warrants recording.
