FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Seleda Perryman, Directorate of Standards and Guidance, OSHA, U.S. Department of Labor; telephone (202) 693–2222. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: I. Background The Department of Labor, as part of the continuing effort to reduce paperwork and respondent (i.e., employer) burden, conducts a preclearance consultation program to provide the public with an opportunity to comment on proposed and continuing information collection requirements in accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA) (44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)). This program ensures that information is in the desired format, reporting burden (time and costs) is minimal, the collection instruments are clearly understood, and OSHA’s estimate of the information collection burden is accurate. The Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970 (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 effort in obtaining information (29 U.S.C. 657). The following sections describe who uses the information collected under each requirement, as well as how they use it. In 2016, OSHA established the Safe and Sound Campaign, a voluntary effort to support the implementation of safety and health programs in businesses throughout the Unites States. Outside stakeholders, including safety health professional organizations, trade and industry associations, academic institutions, and state and federal government agencies, collaborate with the agency on the Campaign. The Campaign includes periodic activities and events, ranging from regular email updates to quarterly national webinars to local meetings to an annual national stand down (i.e., Safe and Sound Week), designed to increase overall employer VerDate Sep<11>2014 20:54 Apr 26, 2024 Jkt 262001 and employee awareness and understanding of safety and health programs and promote employer adoption of these programs. OSHA believes widespread implementation of such programs will substantially improve overall workplace safety and health conditions. 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 to protect workers, 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, and transmission techniques. III. Proposed Actions OSHA is requesting that OMB approve the information collection requirements contained in the Safe and Sound Campaign. The agency is requesting a revision increase of total burden hours from 2,535 to 20,088 hours, a difference of 17,553 hours. This increase is due to the anticipated increase in the number of respondents registering by 22,000. OSHA will summarize the comments submitted in response to this notice and will include this summary in the request to OMB to extend the approval of the information collection requirements. Type of Review: Revision of a currently approved collection. Title: Safe and Sound Campaign. OMB Control Number: 1218–0269. Affected Public: Business or other forprofits. Number of Respondents: 190,155. Number of Responses: 190,155. Frequency of Responses: Once. Average Time per Response: Varies. Estimated Total Burden Hours: 20,088.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Background

    The Department of Labor, as part of the continuing effort to reduce 
paperwork and respondent (i.e., employer) burden, conducts a 
preclearance consultation program to provide the public with an 
opportunity to comment on proposed and continuing information 
collection requirements in accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act 
of 1995 (PRA) (44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)). This program ensures that 
information is in the desired format, reporting burden (time and costs) 
is minimal, the collection instruments are clearly understood, and 
OSHA's estimate of the information collection burden is accurate. The 
Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970 (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 effort in 
obtaining information (29 U.S.C. 657).
    The following sections describe who uses the information collected 
under each requirement, as well as how they use it. In 2016, OSHA 
established the Safe and Sound Campaign, a voluntary effort to support 
the implementation of safety and health programs in businesses 
throughout the Unites States. Outside stakeholders, including safety 
health professional organizations, trade and industry associations, 
academic institutions, and state and federal government agencies, 
collaborate with the agency on the Campaign. The Campaign includes 
periodic activities and events, ranging from regular email updates to 
quarterly national webinars to local meetings to an annual national 
stand down (i.e., Safe and Sound Week), designed to increase overall 
employer and employee awareness and understanding of safety and health 
programs and promote employer adoption of these programs. OSHA believes 
widespread implementation of such programs will substantially improve 
overall workplace safety and health conditions.

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 to 
protect workers, 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, and 
transmission techniques.

III. Proposed Actions

    OSHA is requesting that OMB approve the information collection 
requirements contained in the Safe and Sound Campaign. The agency is 
requesting a revision increase of total burden hours from 2,535 to 
20,088 hours, a difference of 17,553 hours. This increase is due to the 
anticipated increase in the number of respondents registering by 
22,000.
    OSHA will summarize the comments submitted in response to this 
notice and will include this summary in the request to OMB to extend 
the approval of the information collection requirements.
    Type of Review: Revision of a currently approved collection.
    Title: Safe and Sound Campaign.
    OMB Control Number: 1218-0269.
    Affected Public: Business or other for-profits.
    Number of Respondents: 190,155.

    Frequency of Responses: Once.
    Average Time per Response: Varies.
