  [Docket No.

OSHA proposes to revise 29 CFR 1904.8, Reporting of Fatality or Multiple Hospitalization Accidents. Four changes would be made to the current reporting requirements. Where the present rule only applies to employment accidents which result in one or more fatalities or hospitalizations of five or more employees, the proposed rule would cover accidents resulting in hospitalizations of three or more employees. It would require the employer to report accidents within 8 hours of their occurrence instead of the current 48 hour time frame.
