1218-AD49 202504 Unified Agenda of Federal Regulatory and Deregulatory Actions 1218 Occupational Safety and Health Administration OSHA 1200 Department of Labor DOL OSHA Standards Improvement Project 2025

The Occupational Safety and Health Administration’s (OSHA)OSHA's Standards Improvement Projects (SIPs) are intended to remove, modernize, or narrow duplicative, unnecessary, or overly burdensome regulatory provisions. The project examines multiple standards covering general industry, as well as maritime, construction, and agricultural industries. These actions will be deregulatory and / or burden reducing to covered employers. This rulemaking is consistent with the intent of Executive Order 14219 (Ensuring Lawful Governance and Implementing the President's "Department of Government Efficient Deregulatory Initiative) because the agency has good cause to believe that the existing regulations significantly and unjustifiably impede technological innovation and economic development. By modernizing the existing regulations, OSHA will allow increased productivity and reduce the regulatory burden on employers.
