SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Background 

The Department of Labor, as part of 

the continuing effort to reduce 

paperwork and respondent (i.e., 

employer) burden, conducts a 

preclearance consultation program to 

provide the public with an opportunity 

to comment on proposed and 

continuing information collection 

requirements in accordance with the 

Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 

U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)). This program 

ensures that information is in the 

desired format, reporting burden (time 

and costs) is minimal, collection 

instruments are clearly understood, and 

OSHA’s estimate of the information 

collection burden is accurate. The 

Occupational Safety and Health Act of 

1970 (OSH Act) (29 U.S.C. 651 et seq.) 

authorizes information collection by 

employers as necessary or appropriate 

for enforcement of the OSH Act or for 

developing information regarding the 

causes and prevention of occupational 

injuries, illnesses, and accidents (29 

U.S.C. 657). The OSH Act also requires 

that OSHA obtain such information 

with a minimum burden upon 

employers, especially those operating 

small businesses, and to reduce to the 

maximum extent feasible unnecessary 

duplication of efforts in obtaining said 

information (29 U.S.C. 657). 

The OSPP allows OSHA to enter into 

an extended, voluntary, cooperative 

relationship with groups of employers, 

employees, and representatives 

(sometimes including other 

stakeholders, and sometimes involving 

only one employer) to encourage, assist, 

and recognize their efforts to eliminate 

serious hazards and to achieve a high 

level of worker safety and health that 

goes beyond what historically has been 

achieved from traditional enforcement 

methods. Each OSHA Strategic 

Partnership (OSP) determines what 

information will be needed, determining 

the best collection method, and 

clarifying how the information will be 

used. At a minimum, each OSP must 

identify baseline injury and illness data 

corresponding to all summary line items 

on the OSHA 300 logs and must track 

changes at either the worksite level or 

participant-aggregate level. An OSP may 

also include other measures of success, 

such as training activity, selfinspections, and/or workers’ 

compensation data. In this regard, the 

information collection requirements for 

the OSPP are used by the agency to 

gauge the effectiveness of programs, 

identify needed improvements, and 

ensure that resources are being used 

effectively and appropriately. 

II. Special Issues for Comment 

OSHA has a particular interest in 

comments on the following issues: 

• Whether the proposed information 

collection requirements are necessary 

for the proper performance of the 

agency’s functions to protect workers, 

including whether the information is 

useful; 

• The accuracy of OSHA’s estimate of 

the burden (time and costs) of the 

information collection requirements, 

including the validity of the 

methodology and assumptions used; 

• The quality, utility, and clarity of 

the information collected; and 

• Ways to minimize the burden on 

employers who must comply; for 

example, by using automated or other 

technological information, and 

transmission techniques. 

III. Proposed Actions 

The agency is requesting an 

adjustment increase of 15,400 burden 

hours of the previous approval of 18,480 

to 33,880 hours. The increase in burden 

is a result of an increase in the number 

of employers and participants. 

OSHA will summarize the comments 

submitted in response to this notice and 

will include this summary in the 

request to OMB to extend the approval 

of the information collection 

requirements.

currently approved data collection.
