survey measures the overall rate of occurrence of work injuries and
illnesses by industry for private industry, state governments, and
local governments. For additional substantive information about this
ICR, see the related notice published in the Federal Register on May

of law, no person shall generally be subject to penalty for failing to
comply with a collection of information that does not display a valid
OMB Control Number. See 5 CFR 1320.5(a) and 1320.6.
DOL seeks PRA authorization for this information collection for
