OSHA is seeking public input on its proposal to extend the approval from the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for information collection requirements outlined in the Benzene Standard. The goal of these requirements is to protect workers from harmful health effects due to exposure to benzene. OSHA welcomes comments on whether these requirements are necessary, their accuracy, and ways to reduce their burden on employers. The comment period is open until May 27, 2025, and comments can be submitted electronically or by fax.
Simple Explanation
OSHA wants to know what people think about continuing the rules that help keep workers safe from a chemical called benzene. They want to make sure the rules are easy to follow and don't make too much extra work for businesses.
