Oct 31, 2025· Comment from Sloan, Lawrence; American Industrial Hygiene Association (AIHA)· OSHA-2020-0004-3046

Narrowing the scope of the General Duty Clause (GDC) could significantly limit OSHA's ability to respond to future airborne infectious disease outbreaks in healthcare and congregate settings. To preserve essential protections, AIHA recommends that OSHA: Affirm that existing standards - including those for respiratory protection, bloodborne pathogens, and housekeeping - remain fully enforceable, and that the GDC continues to apply to recognized infectious disease hazards in the workplace where feasible controls are available. Cross-reference updated guidance to ensure continuity in protection measures and clarify compliance expectations for employers and enforcement personnel. Please see additional comments in the attached file.
