The standard requires employers to
monitor employee exposure to acrylonitrile (AN), to provide medical
surveillance, to train workers about the hazards of AN, and to
establish and maintain accurate records of worker exposure to AN.
These records are used by employers, workers, physicians, and the
Government to ensure that workers are not harmed by exposure to
AN.

There is an adjustment increase
in the burden hour total from to 1,999 to 2,754 hours, a total
increase of 755 hours. The increase is due to an adjustment of
establishments and workers that were identified for the ICR. There
was an overall adjustment cost increase from to $169,554 to
$216,416. The cost increase is the result of an increase in workers
being covered by this standard, thus leading to an increase in both
the number of exposure monitoring samples, 840 to 1,030, and in the
number of worker medical examinations, from 594 to 882.
