§ 1910.1043 Cotton Dust.
PAPERWORK
REDUCTION ACT STATEMENT Under
the cotton dust standard, this medical questionnaire must be
administered to all employees who are exposed to cotton dust, and
who will therefore be included in their employer's medical
surveillance program. (29 CFR 1910.1043(h)(1)(i)). Under the
Paperwork Reduction Act, a
Federal agency generally cannot conduct or sponsor, and the public
is generally not required to respond to, an information collection,
unless it is approved by OMB and displays a valid OMB Control
Number. Use of
this questionnaire is mandatory. The questionnaire assists both
physicians and employers to ensure that the physician obtains
compliant employee medical documentation. OSHA estimates employer
burden for the completion of this collection of information ranges
from one hour and five minutes (1.08 hours) to one hour and
thirty-five minutes (1.58 hours). This estimate includes the time
for reviewing instructions, searching existing data sources,
gathering and maintaining the data needed, and, completing and
reviewing the collection of information. The time estimate includes
employer time for compliance with the underlying information
collection requirements in 29 CFR 1910.1043(h), including employee
time for completion of the questionnaire and medical examination and
providing information to the physician. Send comments regarding
this burden estimate or any other aspect of this collection of
information, including suggestions for reducing this burden to
OSHAPRA@dol.gov
or to OSHA’s Directorate of Standards and Guidance, Department
of Labor, Room N-3718, 200 Constitution Ave., NW, Washington, DC
20210; Attn: Paperwork Reduction Act Comment; 1218-0061. (This
