The
Survey of Occupational Injuries and
Illnesses is the primary indicator of
national progress in providing every
working man and woman safe and
healthful working conditions. Survey
data are also used to evaluate the
effectiveness of the Federal and State
programs and to prioritize scarce
resources. This ICR has been classified
as a revision, because of minor changes,
such as updating the reporting year
covered by the current edition, to survey
instruments.
This information collection is subject
to the PRA. A Federal agency generally
cannot conduct or sponsor a collection
of information, and the public is
generally not required to respond to an
information collection, unless it is
approved by the OMB under the PRA
and displays a currently valid OMB
Control Number. In addition,
notwithstanding any other provisions of
law, no person shall generally be subject
to penalty for failing to comply with a
collection of information that does not
display a valid Control Number. See 5
CFR 1320.5(a) and 1320.6. The DOL
obtains OMB approval for this
information collection under Control
Number 1220–0045. The current
approval is scheduled to expire on
October 31, 2013; however, it should be
noted that existing information
collection requirements submitted to the
OMB receive a month-to-month
extension while they undergo review.
New requirements would only take
effect upon OMB approval. For
additional substantive information
about this ICR, see the related notice
published in the Federal Register on
May 20, 2013 (78 FR 29383).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

tkelley on DSK3SPTVN1PROD with NOTICES

I. Background
The Department of Labor, as part of its
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 accord with the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
(PRA–95) (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, collection
instruments are clearly understood, and
OSHA’s estimate of the information
collection burden is accurate. The
Occupational Safety and Health Act of
1970 (the 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 minimal burden upon
employers, especially those operating
small businesses, and to reduce to the
maximum extent feasible unnecessary
duplication of efforts in obtaining
information (29 U.S.C. 657). The OSH
Act authorizes the Occupational Safety
and Health Administration (‘‘OSHA’’ or
the ‘‘Agency’’) to conduct education and
training courses (29 U.S.C. 670). These
courses must educate an adequate
number of qualified personnel to fulfill
the purposes of the OSH Act, provide
them with short-term training, inform
them of the importance and proper use
of safety and health equipment, and
train employers and workers to
recognize, avoid, and prevent unsafe
and unhealthful working conditions.
Under Section 21 of the OSH Act, the
OSHA Training Institute (the
‘‘Institute’’) provides basic,
intermediate, and advanced training and
education in occupational safety and
health for state compliance officers,
Agency professionals and technicalsupport personnel, employers, workers,
organizations representing workers and
employers, educators who develop
curricula and teach occupational safety
and health courses, and representatives
of professional safety and health groups.

VerDate Mar<15>2010

Jkt 229001

The Institute provides courses on
occupational safety and health at its
national training facility in Arlington
Heights, Illinois.
Students attending Institute courses
complete the one-page Student Data
Form (OSHA Form 182) on the first day
of class. The form provides information
under five major categories titled
‘‘Course Information,’’ ‘‘Personal Data,’’
‘‘Employer Data,’’ ‘‘Emergency
Contacts,’’ and ‘‘Student Groups.’’ The
OSHA Directorate of Training and
Education (the ‘‘Directorate’’) compiles,
for each fiscal year, the following
information from the ‘‘Course
Information’’ and ‘‘Student Groups’’
categories: Total student attendance at
the Institute; the number of students
attending each training course offered
by the Institute; and the types of
students attending these courses (for
example, students from federal or state
occupational safety and health
agencies). The Directorate uses this
information to demonstrate, in an
accurate and timely manner, that the
Agency is providing the training and
worker education mandated by Section
21 of the Act. OSHA also uses this
information to evaluate training output,
and to make decisions regarding
program/course revisions, budget
support, and tuition costs.
The Agency uses the information
collected under the ‘‘Course
Information,’’ ‘‘Personal Data,’’ and
‘‘Employer Data’’ to identify private
sector students so that it can collect
tuition costs from them or their
employers as authorized by 31 U.S.C.
9701 (‘‘Fees and Charges for
Government Services and Things of
Value’’); Office of Management and
Budget Circular A–25 (‘‘User Charges’’);
and 29 CFR part 1949 (‘‘Directorate of
Training and Education, Occupational
Safety and Health Administration’’).
The information in the ‘‘Personal Data’’
and ‘‘Emergency Contacts’’ categories
permits OSHA to contact students who
are residing in local hotels/motels if an
emergency arises at their home or place
of employment, and to alert supervisors/
alternate contacts of a trainee’s injury or
illness.
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, including whether
the information is useful;
• The accuracy of the Agency’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 collection
and transmission techniques.
III. Proposed Actions
OSHA is requesting that OMB extend
its approval of the information
collection requirements contained in the
Student Data Form. The Agency will
summarize the comments submitted in
response to this notice, and will include
this summary in the request for
approval to OMB.
Type of Review: Extension of a
currently approved collection.
Title: Student Data Form.
OMB Control Number: 1218–0172.
Affected Public: Individuals; business
or other for-profit organizations; Federal
government; State, Local, or Tribal
governments.
Number of Respondents: 3,000.
Frequency of Responses: On occasion.
Total Responses: 3,000.
Average Time per Response: 5
minutes (.08 hour).
Estimated Total Burden Hours: 240
hours.
Estimated Cost (Operation and
Maintenance): $0.

and continuing information collection

also requires OSHA to obtain such
information with minimum burden
upon employers, especially those
operating small businesses, and to
reduce to the maximum extent feasible
unnecessary duplication of efforts in
obtaining information (29 U.S.C. 657).
The standard protects workers from the
adverse health effects from occupational
exposure to formaldehyde, including an
itchy, runny, and stuffy nose; a dry or
sore throat; eye irritation; headaches;
and cancer of the lung, buccal cavity
(mouth), and pharynyx (throat).
Formaldehyde solutions can damage the
skin and burn the eyes.
The standard specifies a number of
paperwork requirements. The following
is a brief description of the collection of
information requirements contained in
the Formaldehyde Standard. The
standard requires employers to conduct
worker exposure monitoring to
determine workers’ exposure to
formaldehyde, notify workers of their
formaldehyde exposures, provide
medical surveillance to workers,
provide examining physicians with
specific information, ensure that
workers receive a copy of their medical
examination results, maintain workers’
exposure monitoring and medical
records for specific periods, and provide
