Summary
OSHA is asking for public feedback to keep the paperwork rules for aerial lifts going strong. This affects employers who use aerial lifts, making sure they keep up with safety info collection without extra hassle. Comments are open until April 13, 2026, and there’s no new cost or big changes—just a smooth extension of current rules.
Analyzed Economic Effects

Aerial-lift paperwork stays in place
Employers who modify aerial lifts must continue to obtain a written certificate from the manufacturer or equivalent (e.g., a nationally-recognized laboratory) stating the modification conforms to ANSI A92.2-1969 and OSHA's Aerial Lifts Standard and that the lift is at least as safe as before. OSHA is asking OMB to extend approval of this information collection (OMB Control Number 1218-0216), retaining the previously approved burden of one (1) hour, with an estimated 10 respondents, total burden 1 hour, and estimated operation and maintenance cost $0. Comments on the extension are due April 13, 2026.
