(conoco) Interoffice Communication to Safety Directors From Tom Grumbles Date September 17, 1981 subject OSHA - ACCESS TO EMPLOYEE EXPOSURE AND MEDICAL RECORDS In the Federal Register text attached, OSHA has published interpretations of the records access standard concerning four issues of continuing concern. The most significant intrepretation for our operations is probably the one dealing with the 15-day response time. As long as an employer is making a good faith effort to provide requested records as soon as possible and is keeping the requestor informed of reasons for any delay, OSHA will not cite for violations of the standard.
