Changing Regulations
Short Statement:
The Agency is requesting a program change decrease of 624 burden hours (from 51,644 hours to 51,020 hours). The program change decrease is due to a decrease in the number of workers getting chest x-rays during periodic medical exams identified in (NAICS 331111). Table 2, Change in Burden Hours, shows the changes in burden hours in detail by provision. In addition, the cost decreased as a result of the removal of periodic chest x-ray from medical examinations. Under Item 13 the cost decreased from $974,646 to $792,017, a cost savings of $182,629. As part of the SIP-IV rulemaking, OSHA is also removing the requirement that employers document employees’ social security numbers (SSN) in their exposure and medical records. Time to document SSN in records is negligible. OSHA is further updating the chest x-ray requirements for several of its standards by adding the option of digital radiography to its existing standards. That change does not impact the time required for medical examinations.
