OSHA's Alliance Program is a structure
for working with groups that are committed to worker safety and
health. The program enables OSHA to enter into a voluntary
cooperative relationship with industry, labor and other groups to
improve workplace safety and health, prevent workplace fatalities,
injuries and illnesses, and to reach employers and workers that
OSHA may not otherwise reach through traditional methods. OSHA
collects information from organizations that are signatories to an
Alliance agreement through meetings, informal conversations and
data forms. OSHA will use the collected information to develop
Alliance agreements, support Alliance activities and Alliance
agreement objectives, and develop annual and program-wide
reports.
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).
