OSHA received 2,872 complaints in Fiscal Year 2012, 365 more complaints than the 2,507 complaints estimated in the existing ICR. Thus, OSHA is requesting a total adjustment increase in burden hours of 365, from 2,507 to 2,872.
OSHA currently permits complaints to be filed in any form, and oral complaints are committed to writing. The Agency is seeking OMB approval to provide two additional methods for filing a complaint with the use of the new paper complaint form and the new electronic complaint form. However, the Agency does not believe that these changes will further impact the adjusted burden hours.
On behalf of this Federal agency, I certify that the collection of information encompassed by this request complies with 5 CFR 1320.9 and the related provisions of 5 CFR 1320.8(b)(3).
The following is a summary of the topics, regarding the proposed collection of information, that the certification covers:
(i) Why the information is being collected;
(ii) Use of information;
(iii) Burden estimate;
(iv) Nature of response (voluntary, required for a benefit, or mandatory);
(v) Nature and extent of confidentiality; and
(vi) Need to display currently valid OMB control number;
If you are unable to certify compliance with any of these provisions, identify the item by leaving the box unchecked and explain the reason in the Supporting Statement.
