SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

sradovich on DSK3GMQ082PROD 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 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, 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 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).
Falls are a leading cause of death for
employees. According to 2015 Bureau of
Labor Statistics (BLS) data, falls
accounted for 350 of the 937

VerDate Sep<11>2014

17:47 Jan 11, 2018

Jkt 244001

construction fatalities, and 648 of the
4,836 fatalities in all recorded
industries. The National Fall Safety
Stand-Down to Prevent Falls in
Construction raises fall hazard
awareness across the country in an
effort to stop fall fatalities and injuries.
The Stand-Down is the biggest safety
outreach event ever conducted by the
Agency. OSHA has collaborated with
countless industry leaders and
employers over the last four years to
reach over 7.5 million workers during
Stand-Downs.
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 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 collection
and transmission techniques.
III. Proposed Actions
OSHA is requesting that OMB
approve the information collection
requirements contained in the National
Fall Safety Stand-Down to Prevent Falls
in Construction (29 U.S.C. 669). OSHA
is proposing a burden hour estimate of
seven hundred sixty-five (765) hours.
The Agency will summarize the
comments submitted in response to this
notice and will include this summary in
the request to OMB.
Type of Review: New.
Title: National Fall Safety StandDown to Prevent Falls in Construction.
OMB Control Number: 1218–0NEW.
Affected Public: Business or other forprofits.
Number of Respondents: 4,500.
Frequency of Responses: Annually.
Average Time Per Response: OSHA
estimates an employer will take 10
minutes to complete the survey.
Estimated Total Burden Hours: 765.
Estimated Cost (Operation and
Maintenance): $37,118.

the Standard. Specifically, employers
must prepare a certification record
which includes the identity of the
person trained, the signature of the
employer or the person who conducted
the training, and the date the training
was completed. The certification record
shall be prepared at the completion of
training and shall be maintained on file
for the duration of the employee’s
employment. The information collected
will be used by employers as well as by
compliance officers to determine
whether employees have been trained
according to the requirements set forth
in 29 CFR 1910.268(c).
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

• The quality, utility, and clarity of

• Ways to minimize the burden on

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
Standard on Telecommunications (29
CFR 1910.268). The burden hours have
decreased based on the reduced number
of telecommunication workers installing
and repairing lines and equipment from
215,810 to 205,360. Therefore, the
Agency is proposing to decrease the
existing burden hour estimate for the
collection of information requirements
specified by the Standard from 4,532 to
3,765 (difference of 767 hours). The
Agency will summarize the comments
submitted in response to this notice and
will include this summary in the
request to OMB.
Type of Review: Extension of a
currently approved collection.
Title: Telecommunications (29 CFR
1910.268).
OMB Control Number: 1218–0225.
Affected Public: Business or other forprofits.
Number of Respondents: 35,742.
Frequency of Responses: On occasion.
Average Time Per Response: Various.
