To meet the Agency's program needs,
OSHA is proposing to continue its initiative to collect injury and
illness data and the number of workers and hours worked from
establishments in portions of the private sector and some state
government agencies.
US Code:

USC 673 Name of Law: Occupational Safety and Health Act
US Code: 29
USC 657 Name of Law: Occupational Safety and Health Act
The current inventory includes
burden hours for collection for up to 120,000 establishments. These
included construction firms to track ARRA funded construction
projects. Data from these construction firms will not be collected
in the upcoming surveys. OSHA is requesting approval to collect
data from up to 100,000 establishments. Because of this, there is a
3,333 hour decrease in burden hours from 20,000 to 16,667
hours.

the collection of information encompassed by this request complies
with 5 CFR 1320.9 and the related provisions of 5 CFR
1320.8(b)(3).
