Description: The basic purpose of the
information collection requirements in
the Standard is to document that
employers in general industry are
providing their workers with protection
from hazardous asbestos exposure.
Asbestos exposure results in asbestosis,
an emphysema-like condition; lung
cancer; mesothelioma; and
gastrointestinal cancer.
Several provisions of the Standard
specify paperwork requirements,
including: Implementing an exposure
monitoring program that notifies
workers of their exposure monitoring
results; establishing a written
compliance program; and informing
laundry personnel of the requirement to
prevent release of airborne asbestos
above the time-weighted average and
excursion limit. Other provisions
associated with paperwork requirements
include: Maintaining records of
information obtained concerning the
presence, location, and quantity of
asbestos-containing materials (ACMs)
and/or presumed asbestos-containing
materials (PACMs) in a building/facility;
notifying housekeeping workers of the
presence and location of ACMs and
PACMs in areas they may contact
during their work; posting warning
signs demarcating regulated areas;
posting signs in mechanical rooms/areas
that workers may enter and that contain
ACMs and PACMs, informing them of
the identity and location of these
materials and work practices that
prevent disturbing the materials; and
affixing warning labels to asbestoscontaining products and to containers
holding such products. Additional
provisions that contain paperwork
requirements include: Developing
specific information and training
programs for workers; using
information, data, and analyses to
demonstrate that PACMs do not contain
asbestos; providing medical surveillance
for workers potentially exposed to
ACMs and/or PACMs, including
administering a worker medical
questionnaire, providing information to
the examining physician, and providing
the physician’s written opinion to the
worker; maintaining exposure
monitoring records, objective data used
for exposure determinations, and
medical surveillance; making specified
records (e.g., exposure monitoring and
medical surveillance records) available
to designated parties; and transferring
exposure monitoring and medical
surveillance records to the National
Institute for Occupational Safety and
Health (NIOSH) on cessation of
business, if so requested by NIOSH.
These paperwork requirements permit
employers, workers and their designated

representatives, OSHA, and other
specified parties to determine the
effectiveness of an employer’s asbestoscontrol program. Accordingly, the
requirements ensure that workers
exposed to asbestos receive all of the
protection afforded by the Standard.

related 60-day preclearance notice
