Description: The OSHA Act and 29 

CFR part 1904 require certain employers 

to maintain records of job related 

injuries and illnesses. The injury and 

illness records are intended to have 

multiple purposes. One purpose is to 

provide data needed by OSHA to carry 

out enforcement and intervention 

activities to provide workers a safe and 

healthy work environment. The data are 

also needed by the Bureau of Labor 

Statistics to report on the number and 

rate of occupational injuries and 

illnesses in the country. The data also provides information to 

employers and employees of the kinds 

of injuries and illnesses occurring in the 

workplace and their related hazards. 

Increased employer awareness should 

result in the identification and 

voluntary correction of hazardous 

workplace conditions. Likewise, 

employees who are provided 

information on injuries and illnesses 

will be more likely to follow safe work 

practices and report workplace hazards. 

This would generally raise the overall 

level of safety and health in the 

workplace.

Type of Review: Extension of 

currently approved collection. Title: Calculation and Disclosure of 

Documentation of Eligibility for 

Exemption. OMB Number: 1210–0106. 

Frequency: On occasion. 

Type of Response: Recordkeeping and 

Third party disclosure. Affected Public: Business or other forprofit; Individuals or households; and 

Not-for-profit institutions. Number of Respondents: 10. 

Number of Annual Responses: 200. 

Estimated Time Per Response: 3 

minutes. 

Total Burden Hours: 10 hours. 

Total Annualized capital/startup 

costs: $0. 

Total Annual Costs (operating/

maintaining systems or purchasing 

services): $100. 

Description: Under 29 CFR 

2590.712(f)(2), a group health plan 

wishing to elect the one percent 

exemption must calculate their 

increased costs according to certain 

rules, maintain group health plan claims 

and administrative expense records in 

such a way that they can be used to 

demonstrate the applicability of the one 

percent cost increase exemption as 

defined in the interim final rules, and 

that a summary of that information can 

be provided at the request of 

participants and beneficiaries, or their 

representative at no charge. 

Group health plans use this 

information to obtain the benefits of the 

exemption from the requirement that 

they provide for parity between mental 

health benefits and medical/surgical 

benefits. Participants and beneficiaries 

use the information to be informed of 

the benefits available to them under 

their group health plans, and to verify 

or dispute the applicability of the 

exemption which may serve to limit 

benefits which would otherwise be 

available to them.
