Notice of Final Decision OSHA hereby gives notice of the expansion of the scope of recognition of SGS of North America, Inc. (SGS), as a NRTL. SGS’s expansion covers the addition of twenty test standards to the scope of recognition. Additionally, OSHA announces the addition of four test standards to the NRTL Program’s List of Appropriate Test Standards. OSHA recognition of a NRTL signifies that the organization meets the requirements specified by 29 CFR 1910.7. Recognition is an acknowledgment that the organization can perform independent safety testing and certification of the specific products covered within the scope of recognition and is not a delegation or grant of government authority. 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. The agency processes applications by a NRTL for initial recognition, or for expansion or renewal of this recognition, following requirements in Appendix A to 29 CFR 1910.7. 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 a preliminary VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:09 Aug 26, 2020 Jkt 250001 finding and, in the second notice, the agency provides the final decision on the application.

These pages are available from the agency’s website at https:// www.osha.gov/dts/otpca/nrtl/ index.html. SGS submitted four applications to OSHA to expand recognition as a NRTL to include twenty additional test standards. The first application was submitted to OSHA on February 14, 2018 (OSHA–2006–0040–0051). The second and third applications were submitted to OSHA on April 18, 2018 (OSHA–2006–0040–0052) and (OSHA– 2006–0040–0053). The fourth application (which was a revision to the first application) was submitted to OSHA on July 18, 2019 (OSHA–2006– 0040–0054), to expand the scope of recognition to include the addition of twenty test standards. OSHA staff performed a detailed analysis of the application packet and reviewed other pertinent information. OSHA did not perform any on-site reviews in relation to these applications. OSHA published the preliminary notice announcing SGS’s expansion application and proposed addition to the NRTL Program’s List of Appropriate Test Standards in the Federal Register on March 5, 2020 (85 FR 12942). The agency requested comments by March 20, 2020, but it received no comments in response to this notice. OSHA now is proceeding with this final notice to grant expansion of SGS’s scope of recognition. To obtain or review copies of all public documents pertaining to SGS’s applications, go to https:// www.regulations.gov or contact the Docket Office, Occupational Safety and Health Administration, U.S. Department of Labor, 200 Constitution Avenue NW, Room N–3653, Washington, DC 20210. Docket No. OSHA–2006–0040 contains all materials in the record concerning SGS’s recognition. II. Final Decision and Order OSHA staff examined SGS’s expansion applications, the capability to meet the requirements of the test standards, and other pertinent information.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Notice of Final Decision

    OSHA hereby gives notice of the expansion of the scope of 
recognition of SGS of North America, Inc. (SGS), as a NRTL. SGS's 
expansion covers the addition of twenty test standards to the scope of 
recognition. Additionally, OSHA announces the addition of four test 
standards to the NRTL Program's List of Appropriate Test Standards.
    OSHA recognition of a NRTL signifies that the organization meets 
the requirements specified by 29 CFR 1910.7. Recognition is an 
acknowledgment that the organization can perform independent safety 
testing and certification of the specific products covered within the 
scope of recognition and is not a delegation or grant of government 
authority. 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.
    The agency processes applications by a NRTL for initial 
recognition, or for expansion or renewal of this recognition, following 
requirements in Appendix A to 29 CFR 1910.7. 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 a preliminary finding and, in the second 
notice, the agency provides the 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 
for each NRTL that details the scope of recognition. These pages are 
available from the agency's website at https://www.osha.gov/dts/otpca/nrtl/.
    SGS submitted four applications to OSHA to expand recognition as a 
NRTL to include twenty additional test standards. The first application 
was submitted to OSHA on February 14, 2018 (OSHA-2006-0040-0051). The 
second and third applications were submitted to OSHA on April 18, 2018 
(OSHA-2006-0040-0052) and (OSHA-2006-0040-0053). The fourth application 
(which was a revision to the first application) was submitted to OSHA 
on July 18, 2019 (OSHA-2006-0040-0054), to expand the scope of 
recognition to include the addition of twenty test standards. OSHA 
staff performed a detailed analysis of the application packet and 
reviewed other pertinent information. OSHA did not perform any on-site 
reviews in relation to these applications.
    OSHA published the preliminary notice announcing SGS's expansion 
application and proposed addition to the NRTL Program's List of 
Appropriate Test Standards in the Federal Register on March 5, 2020 (85 
FR 12942). The agency requested comments by March 20, 2020, but it 
received no comments in response to this notice. OSHA now is proceeding 
with this final notice to grant expansion of SGS's scope of 
recognition.
    To obtain or review copies of all public documents pertaining to 
SGS's applications, go to https://www.regulations.gov or contact the 
Docket Office, Occupational Safety and Health Administration, U.S. 
Department of Labor, 200 Constitution Avenue NW, Room N-3653, 
Washington, DC 20210. Docket No. OSHA-2006-0040 contains all materials 
in the record concerning SGS's recognition.

II. Final Decision and Order

    OSHA staff examined SGS's expansion applications, the capability to 
meet the requirements of the test standards, and other pertinent 
information. Based on a review of this evidence, OSHA finds that SGS 
meets the requirements of 29 CFR 1910.7 for expansion of the 
recognition, subject to the specified limitation and conditions listed. 
OSHA, therefore, is proceeding with this final notice to grant 
expansion of SGS's scope of recognition. OSHA limits the expansion of 
SGS's scope of recognition to testing and certification of products for 
demonstration of conformance to the test standard listed in Table 1.

    OSHA's recognition of any NRTL for a particular test standard is 
limited to equipment or materials for which OSHA standards require 
third-party testing and certification before using them in the 
workplace. Consequently, if a test standard also covers any products 
for which OSHA does not require such testing and certification, a 
NRTL's scope of recognition does not include these products.

A. Conditions

    In addition to those conditions already required by 29 CFR 1910.7, 
SGS must abide by the following conditions of the recognition:
    1. SGS must inform OSHA as soon as possible, in writing, of any 
change of ownership, facilities, or key personnel, and of any major 
change in the operations as a NRTL, and provide details of the 
change(s);
    2. SGS must meet all the terms of the recognition and comply with 
all OSHA policies pertaining to this recognition; and
    3. SGS must continue to meet the requirements for recognition, 
including all previously published conditions on SGS's scope of 
recognition, in all areas for which it has recognition.
    Pursuant to the authority in 29 CFR 1910.7, OSHA hereby expands the 
scope of recognition of SGS, subject to the limitation and conditions 
specified above. OSHA also adds four new test standards to the NRTL 
Program's List of Appropriate Test Standards.
