SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: OSHA established the Safe + Sound Campaign, 
a voluntary effort to support the implementation of safety and health 
programs in businesses throughout the United States. The Campaign 
includes period activities and events, ranging from regular email 
updates to quarterly national Webinars to local meetings to an annual 
national stand down, designated to increase overall employer and 
employee awareness and understanding of safety and health programs and 
promote employer adoption of these programs. To gain information needed 
to support this effort, OSHA is proposing to survey, and in some cases 
interview, those participating in the Campaign activities. The goal of 
the information collection is to understand and respond to the needs of 
participants and publicly highlight outcomes to enhance the 
effectiveness of the Campaign. For additional substantive information 
about this ICR, see the related notice published in the

is necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the 
Department, including whether the information will have practical 
utility; (2) the accuracy of the agency's estimates of the burden and 
cost of the collection of information, including the validity of the 
methodology and assumptions used; (3) ways to enhance the quality,

to respond, including the use of automated collection techniques or 
other forms of information technology.
    This information collection is subject to the PRA. A Federal agency

OMB Control Number. In addition, notwithstanding any other provisions 
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 
three (3) years. OMB authorization for an ICR cannot be for more than 
three (3) years without renewal. The DOL notes that information

a month-to-month extension while they undergo review.
