SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: I. Background The Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSH Act) and 29 CFR part 1904 require that certain employers maintain records of job-related injuries and illnesses. The injury and illness records are intended to have multiple purposes. One purpose is to provide data needed by OSHA to carry out enforcement and intervention activities to secure for workers a safe and healthful work environment. The data also provides the Bureau of Labor Statistics information to report on the number and rate of occupational injuries and illnesses in the country. In addition, the data informs employers and workers on the kinds of injuries and illnesses occurring in the workplace and their related hazards. Increased employer awareness should result in the identification and voluntary correction of hazardous workplace conditions. Likewise, workers who are provided information on injuries and illnesses will be more likely to follow safe work practices and report workplace hazards. This would generally raise the overall level of safety and health in the workplace. OSHA currently has approval from the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for the information collection requirements contained in 29 CFR part 1904. That approval will expire on May 31, 2014, unless OSHA applies for an extension of the OMB approval. This notice initiates the process for OSHA to request an extension of the current OMB approval. This notice also solicits public comment on OSHA’s existing paperwork burden estimates from interested parties and seeks public responses to several questions related to the development of OSHA’s estimates. Interested parties are requested to review OSHA’s estimates, which are based upon the most current data available, and to comment on their accuracy or appropriateness for today’s workplaces. II. Special Issues for Comment OSHA has a particular interest in comments on the following issues: • Whether the proposed information collection requirements are necessary E:\FR\FM\20FEN1.SGM 20FEN1
