[NIOSH] Health Hazard Evaluations/Technical Assistance and Emerging Problems

OMB 0920-0260 · HHS/CDC.

OMB 0920-0260

PL 91-596 and PL 91-173 mandate that the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health respond to requests for Health Hazard Evaluations (HHEs) to address chemical, biological, and/or physical workplace hazards. Responses require a valid written response; NIOSH receives about 300 requests per year. The diversity of requests precludes set questionnaires for the evaluations; a set of questionnaires for follow-back is used to assess HHE program effectiveness. Requests come from companies involving service, manufacturing, health and social services, transportation, construction, agriculture/mining, and skilled trades. This Revision ICR requests the following: 1) Addition of one new informed consent form; 2) Updating Spanish and English HHE Request Forms to add an additional 15 site visits; 3) Modification of FollowBack forms to reduce redundancy; and 4) Update the data collection in ROCIS to accurately reflect ongoing activities. Overall burden is increased by 552 hours.
