After a Long Warm-Up, OSHA’s Proposed ‘Walkaround Rule’ Gets OIRA’s Final Approval to Run (in the Federal Register)
A yearslong saga seems to be coming to an end now that the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs (OIRA) has completed its review of the Occupational Safety and Health Administration’s (OSHA) “walkaround rule,” 29 C.F.R. 1903.8(c).
The OIRA website was updated to indicate that the review was completed on March 21, 2024. Finalization of the rule is imminent and the rule will go into effect thirty days after it is published.
