NACOSH members serve staggered terms, unless the member becomes unable to serve, resigns, ceases to be qualified to serve, or is removed by the Secretary. The terms of six NACOSH members expire on July 31, 2021. II. NACOSH Membership NACOSH is comprised of 12 members, all of whom the Secretary appoints. Accordingly, the Secretary seeks six committed members to serve a two-year term. If a vacancy occurs before a term expires, the Secretary may appoint a new member who represents the same interest as the predecessor to serve the remainder of the unexpired term. The U.S. Department of Labor (Department) is committed to equal opportunity in the workplace and seeks a broad-based and diverse NACOSH membership. The Department will conduct a public records check of nominees before their appointment using publicly available sources. Nominations of new members, or resubmissions of current or former members, will be accepted in all categories of membership. Interested persons may nominate themselves or submit the name of another person whom they believe to be interested in and qualified to serve on NACOSH. Nominations may also be submitted by organizations from one of the categories listed. OSHA invites nominations for the following NACOSH positions: • Two (2) public representatives; • One (1) management representative; • One (1) labor representative; • One (1) occupational safety professional representative; and • One (1) occupational health professional representative. Pursuant to 29 CFR 1912a.2, the HHS Secretary designates both of the occupational health professional representatives and two of the four public representatives for the Secretary’s consideration and appointment. OSHA will provide to HHS all nominations and supporting materials for the membership categories the HHS Secretary designates. III. Submission Requirements Any individual or organization may nominate one or more qualified persons for membership on NACOSH. Nominations must include the following information: 1. The nominee’s name, contact information, and current employment or position; 2. The nominee’s resume or curriculum vitae, including prior VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:22 Mar 09, 2021 Jkt 253001 membership on NACOSH and other relevant organizations and associations; 3.

A list of articles or other documents the nominee has authored that indicates the nominee’s experience in worker safety and health; and 6. A statement that the nominee is aware of the nomination, is willing to regularly attend and participate in NACOSH meetings, and has no conflicts of interest that would preclude membership on NACOSH. OSHA will conduct a basic background check of candidates before their appointment to NACOSH. The background check will involve accessing publicly available, internetbased sources. IV. Member Selection The Secretary of Labor will select six NACOSH members based on their experience, knowledge, and competence in the field of occupational safety and health (29 CFR 1912a.2). Nominees will also be evaluated in accordance with Secretary’s Order 10–2020 (85 FR 71104) to ensure they are sufficiently financially independent from the Department programs and activities for which they may be called upon to provide advice. Information received through this nomination process, in addition to other relevant sources of information, will assist the Secretary of Labor in appointing members NACOSH. In selecting NACOSH members, the Secretary will consider individuals nominated in response to this Federal Register notice, as well as other qualified individuals. OSHA will publish a list of NACOSH members in the Federal Register.
