SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: To comply with Executive Order (E.O.) 14043,
``Executive Order on Requiring Coronavirus Disease 2019 Vaccination for
Federal Employees'' (Sept. 9, 2021), and guidance from the Safer
Federal Workforce Task Force, OSHRC created and received emergency
clearance in January 2022 to collect information through the following
form: ``Request for a Medical Exception to the COVID-19 Vaccination
Requirement.'' The information collected is used to determine whether
an employee is entitled under section 501 of the Rehabilitation Act of
1973, 29 U.S.C. 791, to a medical exception to the vaccination
requirements for federal employees set forth in E.O. 14043.
The OMB control number assigned to this form was obtained through
emergency clearance and is therefore valid for only six months,
expiring on July 31, 2022. In anticipation of future requests from its
employees, OSHRC is specifically requesting an extension of its IC.
Prior to submitting an IC request to the Office of Information and
Regulatory Affairs, 5 CFR 1320.8(d)(1) requires agencies to provide a
60-day notice in the Federal Register and ``otherwise consult with
members of the public and affected agencies.'' Thus, through this
notice, OSHRC is soliciting public comments that include: (1) Whether
the proposed collection is necessary for the agency to perform its
mission; (2) the accuracy of the estimated burden specified below; (3)
ways for the agency to enhance the quality, usefulness, and clarity of
the IC; and (4) ways for the agency to minimize the burden without
reducing the quality of the IC.
Title of Collection: Request for a Medical Exception to the COVID-
19 Vaccination Requirement.
OMB Control Number: 3202-0005.
Form Number: Not applicable.
Type of Review: Extension of an approved collection.
Affected Public: OSHRC employees.
Total Estimated Annual Burden Hours: 9.
Estimated Average Burden Hours per Respondent: 3.
Frequency of Response: As required.
Total Estimated No. of Annual Responses: 3.
Cynthia L. Attwood,
Chairman.
