Impact analyses of proposed health and safety
regulations
Occupational Safety and Health Administration
Econometrica supports the U.S. Department of Labor’s
Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) by conducting
regulatory impact
analyses that assess the benefits, technological and financial feasibility,
and economic impacts of proposed health and safety regulations and their
alternatives. Data collection and analysis activities under the contract
include: (1) determining the technological and financial feasibility,
compliance costs, and economic impacts of a proposed regulation and its
alternatives; (2) estimating the benefits and relative cost-effectiveness
of a potential regulatory action; (3) projecting the consequences of
compliance for both large and small firms; (4) assessing the environmental
impacts of a proposed regulatory action; (5) conducting methodological
studies useful to OSHA in the development of health and safety regulations;
and (6) reviewing, evaluating, and/or updating economic studies proposed
by OSHA or other parties.
