SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
The Department of Labor, as part of its
continuing effort to reduce paperwork
and respondent (i.e., employer) burden,
conducts a preclearance consultation
program to provide the public with an
opportunity to comment on proposed
and continuing collection of
information requirements in accord
with the Paperwork Reduction Act of
1995 (PRA–95) (44 U.S.C.
3506(c)(2)(A)). This program ensures
that information is in the desired
format, reporting burden (time and
costs) is minimal, collection
instruments are clearly understood, and
OSHA’s estimate of the information
collection burden is accurate. The
Occupational Safety and Health Act of
1970 (the OSH Act) (29 U.S.C. 651 et
seq.) authorizes information collection
by employers as necessary or
appropriate for enforcement of the OSH
Act or for developing information
regarding the causes and prevention of
occupational injuries, illnesses, and
accidents (29 U.S.C. 657). The OSH Act
also requires that OSHA obtain such
information with minimum burden
upon employers, especially those
operating small businesses, and to
reduce to the maximum extent feasible
unnecessary duplication of efforts in
obtaining information (29 U.S.C. 657).
The collection of information
requirements specified in the Cadmium
in General Industry Standard protect
workers from the adverse health effects
that may result from their exposure to
cadmium. The major collection of
information requirements of the
Standard include: Conducting worker
exposure monitoring, notifying workers
of their cadmium exposures,

implementing a written compliance
program, implementing medical
surveillance of workers, providing
examining physicians with specific
information, ensuring that workers
receive a copy of their medical
surveillance results, maintaining
workers’ exposure monitoring and
medical surveillance records for specific
periods, and providing access to these
records to the workers who are the
subject of the records, the worker’s
representative, and other designated
parties.
II. Special Issues for Comment
OSHA has a particular interest in
comments on the following issues:
• Whether the proposed collection of
information requirements are necessary
for the proper performance of the
Agency’s functions, including whether
the information is useful;
• The accuracy of OSHA’s estimate of
the burden (time and costs) of the
collection of information requirements,
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;
• The quality, utility, and clarity of
the information collected; and
• Ways to minimize the burden on
employers who must comply; for
example, by using automated or other
technological information collection
and transmission techniques.

III. Proposed Actions
OSHA is requesting an adjustment
decrease of 8,309 burden hours (from
84,307 to 75,998 burden hours). The
reduction is primarily the result of the
determination that training delivery
does not constitute a collection of
information under PRA–95. The Agency
estimates an increase in the number of
exposed workers based upon updated
data. As a result, the operation and
maintenance costs have increased from
$4,799,475 to $5,407,985, a total
increase of $608,510 due to increased
cost estimates for exposure monitoring
sampling and medical exams.
Type of Review: Extension of a
currently approved collection.
Title: Cadmium in General Industry
(29 CFR 1910.1027).
OMB Control Number: 1218–0185.
Affected Public: Businesses or other
for-profits.
Number of Respondents: 49,734.
Frequency of Response: On occasion;
Quarterly; Biennially; Semi-annually;
Annually.
Total Responses: 236,630.
Average Time per Response: Varies
from 5 minutes (.08 hour) to maintain
records to 1.5 hours to complete a
medical examination.
