Daily Document Update: HR Compliance Library, ¶46,393, Final OSHA rule delays most compliance deadlines for beryllium construction, shipyard standards - AGENCY REGULATION, (Oct. 1, 2019)

摘要

OSHA has issued a final rule on occupational exposure to beryllium and beryllium compounds in construction and shipyards that delays the compliance deadlines for nearly all provisions of the standards to one year after the final rule’s publication the Federal Register, currently scheduled for September 30. The final rule makes an exception to the compliance deadline for the permissible exposure limit (PEL) and the short-term exposure limit (STEL), which OSHA has been enforcing since May 11, 2018. These exposure limits will remain in effect.
