Advocacy Alert - OSHA Schedules Hearing and Reopens Comment Period for ETS Rule

Mar. 24, 2022

On Dec. 27, 2021, OSHA announced its decision to withdraw its Health Care COVID-19 Emergency Temporary Standard (ETS), and at that time the agency indicated it would work toward the development of a permanent health care standard. 

OSHA is partially reopening the comment period to allow for additional public comment on specific topics and is scheduling an informal public hearing on its interim final rule establishing an Emergency Temporary Standard (ETS), “Occupational Exposure to COVID-19.” The public hearing will begin on April 27, 2022.
