The Occupational Safety and Health
Administration (OSHA) is requesting approval from the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB), pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction
Act (PRA), to conduct validity and reliability analyses of a safety
and health program (SHP) assessment worksheet, the Draft Revised
Form 33 (DRF33), that will replace the current SHP Assessment
Worksheet, OSHA Form 33, used by the OSHA On- Site Consultation
Program (OMB #1218– 0110). The studies that will be conducted on
the DRF33 will enable OSHA to ensure that a valid, reliable, and
efficient tool is provided to On-Site Consultation programs in the
fifty (50) states, the District of Columbia, and several United
States territories to replace the current OSHA Form 33, thereby,
enhancing the quality of consultative services. The studies for
which OSHA is requesting approval will comprise a pre- test (20
consultation visits; to assess Pilot Study procedures and
information technology platform, and correct any issues before
launching the Pilot Study), Pilot Study (300 consultation visits;
to assess the validity and reliability of the DRF33), a follow-up
study (30 consultation visits; to assess any updates to the DRF33
resulting from Pilot Study findings), and a Prospective Analysis
(conducted 12 months after the Pilot Study to assess any impact of
the DRF33 at workplaces that received consultation visits during
the Pilot Study). After completing the Pilot Study, OSHA will
request OMB approval before implementing the DRF33 for use by state
On-Site Consultation programs nationwide (to replace the current
Form 33). Similarly, OSHA will seek OMB approval if any additional
updates are made to the approved worksheet, following the
Prospective Analysis.
