SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION
: MACOSH
is established and operates in
accordance with Section 7(b) of the
Occupational Safety and Health Act of
1970 (OSH Act) (29 U.S.C. 656); 29 CFR
part 1912; Secretary of Labor’s Order
1–2012 (77 FR 3912, Jan. 25, 2012); and
Secretary of Labor’s Order 4–2018 (83
FR 35680, July 27, 2018). In addition,
MACOSH is established and operates in
accordance with the provisions of the
Federal Advisory Committee Act
(FACA), as amended (5 U.S.C. App. 2.),
implementing regulations (41 CFR parts
101–6 and 102–3), and chapter 1600 of
Department of Labor Manual Series 3
(March 17, 2008).
The Committee will advise OSHA on
matters relevant to the safety and health
of employees in the maritime industry
related to the priorities set by the
agency, including: Worker training,
education, and assistance; setting and
enforcing of standards; and assurance of
safe and healthful working conditions
for America’s working men and women
in the maritime industry. The maritime
industry includes shipyard
employment, longshoring, marine
terminal, and other related industries
(e.g., commercial fishing and
shipbreaking). The Committee will
function solely as an advisory body in
compliance with the provisions of
FACA and OSHA’s regulations covering
advisory committees (29 CFR part 1912).
I. Background

fatalities, injuries, and illnesses. The
Committee provides a collective
industry knowledge and expertise, not
otherwise available to the Secretary, to
assist in addressing the unique hazards
found in shipyard and cargo-handling
activities. MACOSH will advise and
provide insight to the Secretary on a
variety of subjects, as well as assist with
the development of guidance and
outreach materials, updating regulatory
requirements, and with other efforts to
help focus industry actions.
