SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
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–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 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).
In the event that a worker is injured
while operating a mechanical power
press, 29 CFR 1910.217(g) requires the
employer to report, within 30 days of
the occurrence, all point-of-operation
injuries to the operators or other
employees to either the Director of the
Directorate of Standards and Guidance
at OSHA, U.S. Department of Labor,
Washington, DC 20210 or electronically
at http://www.osha.gov/pls/oshaweb/
mechanical.html; or to the State Agency
administering a plan approved by the

Assistant Secretary of Labor for
Occupational Safety and Health. This
information includes the employer’s
and worker’s name(s), workplace
address and location; injury sustained;
task being performed when the injury
occurred; number of operators required
for the operation and the number of
operators provided with controls and
safeguards; cause of the incident; type of
clutch, safeguard(s), and feeding
method(s) used; and means used to
actuate the press stroke. These reports
are a source of up-to-date information
on power press machines. Specifically,
this information identifies the
equipment used and conditions
associated with these injuries.
OSHA’s Mechanical Power Press
injury reporting requirement at
1910.217(g) is a separate injury
reporting requirement from OSHA’s
severe injury reporting requirements
which are part of 1904.39. Under
1904.39, employers must, within 24
hours, report to OSHA any work-related
injury requiring hospitalization as well
as work-related incidents resulting in an
amputation or loss of an eye. The
Mechanical Power Press Standard
requires employers to report all injuries
involving operation of a power press to
OSHA or an appropriate state agency
within 30 days. Injuries that must be
reported under 1910.217(g) include
those that are also reportable under
1904.39 as well as those that are
recordable under the recordkeeping
standard (29 CFR 1904).
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 extend
its approval of the information
collection requirement contained in the
Standard on Reports of Injuries to
Employees Operating Mechanical Power
Presses (29 CFR 1910.217(g)). There are
no adjustments or program changes
