The purpose of the Occupational Noise Standard and its information collection requirements are to provide protection to employees from adverse health effects associated with occupational exposure to noise. The standard requires employers to establish and maintain accurate records of employee exposure to noise and audiometric testing performed in compliance with this standard.

OSHA is requesting to decrease the burden hours of these paperwork requirements from 5,175,645 burden hours to 2,853,730 hours, a total decrease of -2,321,915 hours. The requested burden hour adjustments are the result of OSHA reducing the number of establishments and employees by 25%. The 25% reduction reflects that virtually all sectors affected by the Noise Standard are in manufacturing; and, the number of employees in manufacturing has decreased from 19.5 million in 1980 to 14.5 million today. The Agency is also requesting a $51,821,282 reduction from $92,814,861 to $40,993,579. The reduction is the result of a 25% reduction in the number of employees and manufacturing establishments. Also, we now assume that 50% of small establishment employees will receive audiometric examination via a mobile van. The previous ICR assumed all small establishment employees would go off-site to receive their audiometric examination.
