OSHA is requesting an
adjustment increase of 67 hours (from 1,493 hours to 1,560 hours).
The increase is a result of a slight growth in the number of
establishments affected by the Standard from 97 to 101
establishment. This results in an increase in the number of workers
receiving medical examinations, from 667 to 695. This increase is
offset by a one hour decrease for removing the burden hour for
employers to disclose records to an OSHA compliance officer during
an inspection. OSHA determined that disclosure of records during an
inspection is not covered by the PRA. The Agency is also requesting
an adjustment cost increase of $8,650, which is the result of an
increase in the cost of medical examinations from $160 to
$166.
On behalf of this Federal agency, I certify that
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).
The following is a summary of the topics, regarding
the proposed collection of information, that the certification
covers:
(i) Why the information is being collected;
(ii) Use of information;
