OSHA is requesting an adjustment decrease in burden hours from 7,309,058 hours to 6,557,766 hours, a difference of -751,292 hours. The decrease is primarily due to a decrease in the number of establishments and the number of employees. OSHA is also requesting a cost adjustment decrease of $76,445 from $25,147,401 to $25,070,956. The cost reduction results from employers modifying software that can be used to classify chemical and to produce corresponding SDS and labels.
