SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

Secretary of Labor invites interested 

persons to submit nominations for 

membership on MACOSH. 

I. Background 

MACOSH was established by Section 

7(d) of the Occupational Safety and 

Health Act of 1970 (OSH Act) (29 U.S.C. 

651, 656) to advise the Secretary of 

Labor through the Assistant Secretary of 

Labor for Occupational Safety and 

Health (Assistant Secretary) in 

formulating maritime industry 

standards and regarding matters 

pertaining to the administration of the 

OSH Act related to the maritime 

industry. MACOSH is a nondiscretionary advisory committee of 

indefinite duration (see section 3510 of 

the National Defense Authorization Act 

of 2020 (Pub. L. 116–92)). 

MACOSH operates in accordance 

with the Federal Advisory Committee 

Act (FACA) (5 U.S.C. App. 2), its 

implementing regulations (41 CFR parts 

101–6 and 102–3), and OSHA’s 

regulations on Advisory Committees (29 

CFR part 1912). Pursuant to FACA (5 

U.S.C. App. 2, 14(b)(2)), the MACOSH 

charter must be renewed every two 

years. 

The Committee meets approximately 

two times per year. Committee members 

serve without compensation, but OSHA 

provides travel and per diem expenses. 

Members serve a two-year term, which 

begins from the date of appointment by 

the Secretary of Labor. The current 

MACOSH membership will expire on 

April 11, 2021. 

II. MACOSH Membership 

MACOSH consists of not more than 

15 members appointed by the Secretary 

of Labor. The agency seeks committed 

members who have a strong interest in 

the safety and health of workers in the 

maritime industries. The U.S. 

Department of Labor is committed to 

equal opportunity in the workplace. The 

Secretary of Labor will appoint 

members to create a broad-based, 

balanced, and diverse committee 

reflecting the shipyard, longshoring, and 

commercial fishing industries, and 

representing affected interests such as 

employers, employees, safety and health 

professional organizations, government 

organizations with interests or activities 

related to the maritime industry, 

academia, and the public. 

Nominations of new members, or 

resubmissions of current or former 

members, will be accepted in all 

categories of membership. Interested 

persons may nominate themselves or 

submit the name of another person 

whom they believe to be interested in 

and qualified to serve on MACOSH. 

Nominations may also be submitted by 

organizations from one of the categories 

listed above (e.g., employer, employee, 

public, safety and health professional 

organization, state safety and health 

agency, academia). 

III. Submission Requirements 

Nominations must include the 

following information: 

(1) Nominee’s contact information 

and current employment or position; 

(2) Nominee’s resume or curriculum 

vitae, including prior membership on 

MACOSH and other relevant 

organizations and associations; 

(3) Maritime industry interest (e.g., 

employer, employee, public, safety and 

health professional organization, state 

safety and health agency, academia) that 

the nominee is qualified to represent; 

(4) A summary of the background, 

experience, and qualifications that 

addresses the nominee’s suitability for 

membership; and 

(5) A statement that the nominee is 

aware of the nomination, is willing to 

regularly attend and participate in 

MACOSH meetings, and has no 

conflicts of interest that would preclude 

membership on MACOSH. 

OSHA will conduct a basic 

background check of candidates before 

their appointment to MACOSH. The 

background check will involve 

accessing publicly available, internetbased sources. 

IV. Member Selection 

The Secretary of Labor will select 

MACOSH members based on their 

experience, knowledge, and competence 

in the field of occupational safety and 

health, particularly in the maritime 

industries. Information received through 

this nomination process, and other 

relevant sources of information, will 

assist the Secretary of Labor in 

appointing members to MACOSH. In 

selecting MACOSH members, the 

Secretary of Labor will consider 

individuals nominated in response to 

this Federal Register notice, as well as 

other qualified individuals. OSHA will 

publish a list of MACOSH members in 

the Federal Register.
