The Occupational Safety and Health Administration's latest
CD-ROM disc, which includes considerably more information than previous
releases, will now cost less.
For $79, rather than $88 for a one-year subscription or
$28 per single disc, purchasers will get all OSHA standards, the OSH Act and
OSHA Federal Register notices. CD-Rom users also will find preambles to final
rules, Occupational Safety and Health Review Commission decisions, standards
interpretations and frequently asked questions, corporate-wide settlement
agreements, fact sheets, the Field Inspection Reference Manual, variances, the
OSHA Technical Manual, Congressional testimony, chemical sampling information,
OSHA directives, hazard information bulletins, speeches, analytical methods,
compliance memos, a listing of Nationally Recognized Testing Labs, memorandums
of understanding with other agencies, approved blood lead testing labs, an
index to OSHA publications, SAVEs (Standard Alleged Violation Elements), Mine
Safety and Health Administration standards, GOCAD (cadmium biological
monitoring advisor), Bureau of Labor Statistics recordkeeping guidelines and
the occupational safety and health laws and regulations of Mexico.
The newest version supports Windows, Macintosh and
DOS-based computers and permits Windows users to jump from one related document
to another through hypertext links. Release A95-3, current through June 1995,
contains thousands of pages of OSHA documents and regulations. The disc
includes retrieval software that allows a PC user to search the text of the
materials, display documents and view images. New Windows software is easier to
use and permits users to copy individual databases to their PC hard drive to
access data without using the CD-ROM.
Titled "OSHA Regulations, Documents, and Technical
Information on CD-ROM," the disc is available from the Government Printing
Office as a one-year subscription (stock number 729-013-00000-5) for $79 or as
a single disc for $28. GPO will accept VISA, MasterCard or GPO Deposit Account
charges. Written orders must be prepaid. Mail checks, payable to Superintendent
of Documents, along with orders to GPO, Washington, D.C. 20402. For telephone
orders, call (202) 512-1800. Currently GPO sends out more than 14,000 OSHA
CD-ROM discs each quarter.
Installation instructions, user instructions and a
description of information on the CD-ROM are included in a small booklet
enclosed in the CD-ROM case. OSHA's CD-ROM help desk at (801) 487-0680 can
provide further information and answer questions on the product.
