SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Notice of the Application for 

Expansion 

The Occupational Safety and Health 

Administration is providing notice that 

SGS North America, Inc. (SGS) is 

applying for an expansion of its current 

recognition as a NRTL. SGS requests the 

addition of two test standards to its 

NRTL scope of recognition. 

OSHA recognition of a NRTL signifies 

that the organization meets the 

requirements specified in 29 CFR 

1910.7. Recognition is an 

acknowledgment that the organization 

can perform independent safety testing 

and certification of the specific products 

covered within the scope of recognition. 

Each NRTL’s scope of recognition 

includes (1) the type of products the 

NRTL may test, with each type specified 

by the applicable test standard; and (2) 

the recognized site(s) that has/have the 

technical capability to perform the 

product-testing and productcertification activities for test standards 

within the NRTL’s scope. Recognition is 

not a delegation or grant of government 

authority; however, recognition enables 

employers to use products approved by 

the NRTL to meet OSHA standards that 

require product testing and certification. 

The agency processes applications by 

NRTLs or applicant organizations for 

initial recognition, as well as for 

expansion or renewal of recognition, 

following requirements in Appendix A 

to 29 CFR 1910.7. This appendix 

requires that the agency publish two 

notices in the Federal Register in 

processing an application. In the first 

notice, OSHA announces the 

application and provides a preliminary 

finding. In the second notice, the agency 

provides the final decision on the 

application. These notices set forth the 

NRTL’s scope of recognition or 

modifications of that scope. OSHA 

maintains an informational web page for 

each NRTL, including SGS, which 

details that NRTL’s scope of recognition. 

These pages are available from the 

OSHA website at http://www.osha.gov/ 

dts/otpca/nrtl/index.html. 

SGS currently has nine facilities 

(sites) recognized by OSHA for product 

testing and certification, with the 

headquarters located at: SGS North 

America, Inc., 620 Old Peachtree Road, 

Suwanee, Georgia 30024. A complete 

list of SGS’s scope of recognition is 

available at https://www.osha.gov/dts/ 

otpca/nrtl/sgs.html. 

II. General Background on the 

Application 

SGS submitted an application to 

OSHA to expand the scope of 

recognition as a NRTL to include six 

additional test standards on April 19, 

2018 (OSHA–2006–0040–0074). This 

application was amended on January 19, 

2022 (OSHA–2006–0040–0075), to 

remove four standards from the original 

application. OSHA staff performed a 

detailed analysis of the application 

packet and reviewed other pertinent 

information. OSHA did not perform any 

on-site reviews in relation to this 

application. 

Table 1 lists the appropriate test 

standards found in SGS’s application for 

expansion for testing and certification of 

products under the NRTL Program. 

TABLE 1—PROPOSED LIST OF APPROPRIATE TEST STANDARDS FOR INCLUSION IN SGS’S NRTL SCOPE OF RECOGNITION

Test standard Test standard title 

UL 991 .................. Tests for Safety-Related Controls Employing Solid-State Devices. 

UL 2111 ................ Overheating Protection for Motors. 

III. Preliminary Findings on the 

Application 

SGS submitted an acceptable 

application for expansion of the scope 

of recognition. OSHA’s review of the 

application file and pertinent 

documentation preliminarily indicates 

that SGS can meet the requirements 

prescribed by 29 CFR 1910.7 for 

expanding its recognition to include the 

addition of the two test standards listed 

in Table 1, above, for NRTL testing and 

certification. This preliminary finding 

does not constitute an interim or 

temporary approval of SGS’s 

application. 

OSHA welcomes public comment as 

to whether SGS meets the requirements 

of 29 CFR 1910.7 for expansion of the 

recognition as a NRTL. Comments 

should consist of pertinent written 

documents and exhibits. Commenters 

needing more time to comment must 

submit a request in writing, stating the 

reasons for the request. Commenters 

must submit the written request for an 

extension by the due date for comments. 

OSHA will limit any extension to 10 

days unless the requester justifies a 

longer period. OSHA may deny a 

request for an extension if the request is 

not adequately justified. To obtain or 

review copies of the exhibits identified 

in this notice, as well as comments 

submitted to the docket, contact the 

Docket Office, at the above address. 

These materials also are available online 

at http://www.regulations.gov under 

Docket No. OSHA–2006–0040. 

OSHA staff will review all comments 

to the docket submitted in a timely 

manner and, after addressing the issues 

raised by these comments, will make a 

recommendation to the Assistant 

Secretary for Occupational Safety and 

Health as to whether to grant SGS’s 

application for expansion of the scope 

of recognition. The Assistant Secretary 

will make the final decision on granting 

the application. In making this decision, 

the Assistant Secretary may undertake 

other proceedings prescribed in 

Appendix A to 29 CFR 1910.7. OSHA 

will publish a public notice of the final 

decision in the Federal Register.
