Review – OMB Approves OSHA Injuries and Illnesses ICR Revision

On Friday, the OMB’s Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs (OIRA) announced that it had approved an information collection request (ICR) from DOL’s Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) on “Recordkeeping and Reporting Occupational Injuries and Illnesses (29 CFR Part 1904)”. Industry and OSHA use this data as a means to track changes in safety performance in the workplace.

The table below shows the change in burden estimate that was approved by OIRA.

 


OSHA reports that the reason for the burden estimate increase is that they are combining the “Improve Tracking of Injuries and Illnesses” ICR, OMB Control Number 1218-0279, with this collection.
