35362 Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 119 / Tuesday, June 22, 2010 / Proposed Rules 

facilitate as much group interaction as 

possible, formal presentations will not 

be permitted. OSHA believes the 

stakeholder meeting discussion should 

center on major issues such as: 

• Possible regulatory approaches 

•Scope and application of a rule 

—Covered industries 

—Covered employers (size, high/low 

injury rates) 

—Covered hazards 

—Relationship to existing OSHA 

requirements 

•Organization of a rule 

—Regulatory text 

—Mandatory or voluntary appendices 

—Other standards incorporated by 

reference 

• The role of consensus standards 

• Economic impacts 

• Any additional topics as time 

permits 

In addition, OSHA is interested in 

receiving feedback on the following 

specific questions: 

• In light of the ANSI Z10 standard, 

the OHSAS 18001 standard, and 

OSHA’s 1989 guidelines, what are the 

advantages and disadvantages of 

addressing through rulemaking a 

systematic process that proactively 

addresses workplace safety and health 

hazards? 

• Based on OSHA’s experience, the 

Agency believes that an Injury and 

Illness Prevention Program rule would 

include the following elements: 

1. Management duties (including 

items such as establishing a policy, 

setting goals, planning and allocating 

resources, and assigning and 

communicating roles and 

responsibilities); 

2. Employee participation (including 

items such as involving employees in 

establishing, maintaining and evaluating 

the program, employee access to safety 

and health information, and employee 

role in incident investigations); 

3. Hazard identification and 

assessment (including items such as 

what hazards must be identified, 

information gathering, workplace 

inspections, incident investigations, 

hazards associated with changes in the 

workplace, emergency hazards, hazard 

assessment and prioritization, and 

hazard identification tools); 

4. Hazard prevention and control 

(including items such as what hazards 

must be controlled, hazard control 

priorities, and the effectiveness of the 

controls); 

5. Education and training (including 

items such as content of training, 

relationship to other OSHA training 

requirements, and periodic training); 

and 

6. Program evaluation and 

improvement (including items such as 

monitoring performance, correcting 

program deficiencies, and improving 

program performance). 

Are these the appropriate elements? 

Which elements are essential for an 

effective approach? Should additional 

elements be included? 

• How can OSHA ensure that small 

business employers are able to 

implement and maintain an effective 

Injury and Illness Prevention Program? 

• Should an OSHA Injury and Illness 

Prevention Program rule apply to every 

business or should it be limited in some 

way based on an employer’s size, 

industry, incident rates, and/or hazard 

indices? 

• To what extent should OSHA rely 

on existing consensus standards in 

developing a rule? 

• How can OSHA use State 

experience with injury and illness 

prevention in developing a rule? 

• What mechanisms have been found 

to be effective for enabling employees to 

participate in safety and health in the 

workplace? 

• Given the variety of names used to 

describe processes to reduce injuries 

and illnesses in the workplace, what is 

the most appropriate name for OSHA to 

describe this topic? 

III. Public Participation 

Approximately 50 participants will be 

accommodated in each meeting, and 

eight hours will be allotted for each 

meeting. Members of the general public 

may observe, but not participate in, the 

meetings on a first-come, first-served 

basis as space permits. OSHA staff will 

be present to take part in the 

discussions. Logistics for the meetings 

are being managed by Eastern Research 

Group (ERG), which will provide a 

facilitator and compile notes 

summarizing the discussion; these notes 

will not identify individual speakers. 

ERG also will make an audio recording 

of each session to ensure that the 

summary notes are accurate; these 

recordings will not be transcribed. The 

summary notes will be available on 

OSHA’s Web page at http:// 

www.osha.gov.
