Terms of Clearance: The previous terms of clearance remain in effect: Clearance for the SOII collection is granted for two years, during which time BLS and OSHA will continue to collaborate to best leverage the administrative data resulting from the OSHA final rule to ‘Improve Tracking of Workplace Injuries and Illnesses’ (29 CFR Parts 1904 and 1952). Within 1 year of clearance, BLS will brief OMB on initial feasibility assessments for using the OSHA administrative data as an input to the SOII. Before the next full clearance submission in two years, BLS will submit a report to OMB describing how the SOII collection will leverage OSHA administrative data to: reduce burden to respondents by eliminating or reducing to the greatest extent possible duplicative data collection, expand the scope of the SOII collection, improve data completeness and quality, and meet stakeholder needs.

Abstract: The Survey of Occupational Injuries and Illnesses is the primary indicator of the Nation's progress in providing every working man and woman safe and healthful working conditions. The survey measures the overall rate of work injuries and illnesses by industry. Survey data are also used to evaluate the effectiveness of Federal and State programs and to prioritize scarce resources. Respondents include employers who maintain OSHA records in accordance with the Occupational Safety and Health Act and employers who are normally exempt from OSHA recordkeeping. Each year a sample of exempt employers is required to keep records and participate in the Survey.
