    OSHA has expanded the recognition of Intertek Testing Services NA, Inc. as a Nationally Recognized Testing Laboratory (NRTL). This expansion includes adding two new test standards to Intertek's existing scope. Recognition means that OSHA acknowledges Intertek's ability to independently test and certify specific products for safety. The expanded recognition is effective from December 30, 2024, and Intertek must continue to comply with all relevant OSHA requirements.
