OSHA requests comments on Fall Protection Systems rule

In the Federal Register for May 2, 2003, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) reopened the rulemaking record on proposed revisions to “Walking and Working Surfaces and Personal Protective Equipment (Fall Protection Systems),” according to a report from the Truck Trailer Manufacturers Association.

Reopening of the record is designed to gather information on advances in technology and industry practice and to update consensus standards issued since the proposals were published.

The comment deadline is July 31, 2003. For a copy of the rule, e-mail [email protected].
