Federal Register / Vol. 81, No. 75 / Tuesday, April 19, 2016 / Notices
Occupational Safety and Health Act of
1970 (the OSH Act) (29 U.S.C. 651 et
seq.) authorizes information collection
by employers as necessary or
appropriate for enforcement of the OSH
Act or for developing information
regarding the causes and prevention of
occupational injuries, illnesses, and
accidents (29 U.S.C. 657). The OSH Act
also requires that OSHA obtain such
information with minimum burden
upon employers, especially those
operating small businesses, and to
reduce to the maximum extent feasible
unnecessary duplication of efforts in
obtaining information (29 U.S.C. 657).
The information collection
requirements specified in the Benzene
Standard protect workers from the
adverse health effects that may result
from occupational exposure to benzene.
The major information collection
requirements in the Standard include
conducting worker exposure
monitoring, notifying workers of the
benzene exposure, implementing a
written compliance program,
implementing medical surveillance for
workers, providing examining
physicians with specific information,
ensuring that workers receive a copy of
their medical surveillance records, and
providing access to these records by
OSHA, the National Institute for
Occupational Safety and Health, the
worker who is the subject of the records,
the worker’s representative, and other
designated parties.

II. Special Issues for Comment
OSHA has a particular interest in
comments on the following issues:
• Whether the proposed information
collection requirements are necessary
for the proper performance of the
Agency’s functions, including whether
the information is useful;
• The accuracy of OSHA’s estimate of
the burden (time and costs) of the
information collection requirements,
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;
• The quality, utility, and clarity of
the information collected; and
• Ways to minimize the burden on
employers who must comply; for
example, by using automated or other
technological information collection
and transmission techniques.
III. Proposed Actions
The Agency is requesting an
adjustment increase of 18,726 burden
hours (from 126,183 hours to 144,909
hours). The adjustment increase is the
result of an increase in the number of
workers receiving medical
examinations. There was a $1,826,862
increase in the cost under Item 13 from
