Occupational Safety and Health Standards for Shipyard Employment

The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) is publishing technical amendments to its Shipyard Employment standards. These standards contain a number of minor typographical, grammatical and other errors. This document corrects those errors, as well as several inaccurate cross-references in these standards. The cross- references are being changed because the referenced section numbers have changed or been removed as a result of prior revisions to OSHA's Shipyard Employment rules. The technical amendments and corrections being published today are not substantive in nature; they will not impose additional compliance obligations on employers or reduce the protections provided to workers by these standards.
