Gear Certification Standard; Extension of the Office of Management and Budget's (OMB) Approval of Information Collection (Paperwork) Requirements

Résumé

OSHA solicits comments concerning its proposal to extend OMB approval of the Information Collection Requirements contained in the Gear Certification Standard (29 CFR part 1919). These maritime regulations require employers to have an OSHA 71 Form issued for equipment found to be in a safe condition and the OSHA 72 Form issued to equipment that is unsafe. These forms are issued by third parties who have applied to OSHA, on the OSHA 70 Form, for accreditation to certify gear used in maritime employment.
