As a result of recognition, employers may use products properly approved by the NRTL to meet OSHA standards that require testing and certification of the products.

This appendix requires that the Agency publish two notices in the Federal Register in processing an application. In the first notice, OSHA announces the application and provides its preliminary finding and, in the second notice, the Agency provides its final decision on the application. These notices set forth the NRTL’s scope of recognition or modifications of that scope. OSHA maintains an informational Web page E:\FR\FM\08DEN1.SGM 08DEN1
