including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used; (3)

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Work
Schedules Supplement to the Current
Population Survey will gather
information on work schedules and
work at home of the employed.
Information will be collected to broadly
categorize work schedules, including
identifying shift workers and workers
with flexible schedules, and people who
work at home, including those who
work entirely at home. The 2024 work
schedules supplement will allow
researchers and policy makers to
evaluate how the number and
characteristics of shift workers and
people who work at home has evolved.
Policy makers also can use these data to
inform the design of regulations for
different types of workers. For
additional substantive information
about this ICR, see the related notice
published in the Federal Register on
March 22, 2024 (89 FRN 20502).
This information collection is subject
to the PRA. A Federal agency generally
cannot conduct or sponsor a collection
of information, and the public is
generally not required to respond to an
information collection, unless the OMB
approves it and displays a currently
valid OMB Control Number. In addition,
notwithstanding any other provisions of
law, no person shall generally be subject
to penalty for failing to comply with a
collection of information that does not
display a valid OMB Control Number.
See 5 CFR 1320.5(a) and 1320.6.
Agency: DOL–BLS.
Title of Collection: Work Schedules
Supplement to the CPS.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
The Department of Labor, as part of
the 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, the collection
instruments are clearly understood, and
OSHA’s estimate of the information
collection burden is accurate. The
Occupational Safety and Health Act of
1970 (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

VerDate Sep<11>2014

17:57 Jun 17, 2024

Jkt 262001

maximum extent feasible unnecessary
duplication of effort in obtaining
information (29 U.S.C. 657).
The following is a description of the
collection of information requirements
specified in the Shipyard Employment
Standards. The purpose of the collection
of information (paperwork) provisions
of the standards is to reduce worker’s
risk of death or serious injury by
ensuring that equipment has been tested
and is in safe operating condition.
Manila rope and manila-rope slings
(paragraph 1915.112(a)(1))—The
employer must ensure that manila rope
and manila-rope slings have
permanently affixed and legible
identification markings as prescribed by
the manufacturer that indicate the
recommended safe working load for the
type(s) of hitch(es) used, the angle upon
which it is based, and the number of
legs if more than one.
Wire rope and wire-rope slings
(paragraph 1915.112(b)(1)(i))—The
employer must ensure that wire rope
and wire-rope slings have permanently
affixed and legible identification
markings as prescribed by the
manufacturer that indicate the
recommended safe working load for the
type(s) of the hitch(es) used, the angle
upon which it is based, and the number
of legs if more than one.
Chain and chain slings (paragraph
1915.112(c)(1)(i)—The employer must
ensure that chain and chain slings have
permanently affixed and legible
identification markings as prescribed by
the manufacturer that indicate the
recommended safe working load for the
type(s) of hitch(es) used, the angle upon
which it is based, and the number of
legs if more than one.
Chain and chain slings (paragraph
1915.112(c)(2)—The employer shall
visually inspect all slings chains,
including end fastenings, before being
used on the job, as well as every three
months. The inspection shall include
inspection for wear, defective welds,
deformation, and increase in length or
stretch. Each chain shall bear an
indication of the month in which it was
thoroughly inspected.
Shackles (paragraph
1915.113(a)(1))—The employer must
ensure that shackles have permanently
affixed and legible identification
markings as prescribed by the
manufacturer that indicate the
recommended safe working load.
Test Records for Hooks (paragraph
1915.113(b)(1))—This paragraph
requires that the manufacturer’s
recommendations be followed in
determining the safe working loads of
the various sizes and types of hooks. If
the manufacturer’s recommendations

Frm 00061

Fmt 4703

Sfmt 4703

are not available, the hook must be
tested to twice the intended safe
working load before it is initially put
into use. The employer must maintain
and keep readily available a certification
record which includes the date of such
test, the signature of the person who
performed the test, and an identifier for
the hook which was tested.
The records are used to assure that
equipment has been properly tested.
The records also provide the most
efficient means for the compliance
officers to determine that an employer is
complying with the Standard.
Mobile Crawler or Truck Cranes Used
on a Vessel (paragraph 1915.115(c))—
This paragraph requires that the
maximum manufacturer’s rated safe
working loads for the various working
radii of the boom and the maximum and
minimum radii at which the boom may
be safely used with and without
outriggers shall be conspicuously posted
near the controls and shall be visible to
the operator.
Examination and Test Records for
Unfired Pressure Vessels (paragraphs
1915.172(b) and (d))—Paragraph (b)
requires that portable, unfired pressure
vessels not built to the requirements of
the American Society of Mechanical
Engineers Boiler and Pressure Vessel
Code, Section VIII, Rules for
Construction of Unfired Pressure
Vessels, 1963 be examined quarterly by
a competent person and subjected to a
yearly hydrostatic pressure test. A
certification record of such
examinations and tests shall be
maintained as specified by paragraph
(d).
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 to protect workers,
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, and
transmission techniques.
III. Proposed Actions
OSHA is requesting that OMB extend
the approval of the information
collection requirements contained in the

Shipyard Employment Standards. The
agency is requesting an adjustment
decrease in burden from 10,379 hours to
9,538 hours, a difference of 841 hours.
This adjustment decrease is due to the
decrease in the number of
establishments.
OSHA will summarize the comments
submitted in response to this notice and
will include this summary in the
request to OMB to extend the approval
of the information collection
requirements.
