Short Statement: The Agency is requesting an adjustment increase of 158,940 burden hours (from 5,528,742 hours to 5,687,682). This increase is a result of updated data showing an increase in the number of facilities (from 691,669 to 700,724) and employees (from 8,270,108 to 8,399,358) affected by the Standard. The operation and maintenance cost increased from $46,093,897 to $51,817,985 due to the increase in medical costs (administration of the Hepatitis B Vaccine and the PEP treatment). This increase is also a result of updated data showing an increase in the number of facilities and employees affected by the Standard.
