![["The Assistant Secretary for Occupational Safety and Health is informing members of the 98th Congress about the changes that have been made at the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) over the past two years. These changes focus on better utilization of policy tools, improved relations with employees and employers, and more efficient use of resources in the standard-setting process. The document also highlights the success of OSHA's efforts in reducing workplace injuries and illnesses and improving public perception. The Assistant Secretary invites members to discuss OSHA's programs and policies further."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/Glenn%20Lee%20English,%20Jr.%20Collection/CAC_CC_017_3_170_14_0000-Labor,%20Occupational%20Safety%20and%20Health%20Administration,%201983-1984,%201986/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_017_3_170_14_0008_thumbnail.jpg "OSHA Refers Shawnee, OK Job Death Case to Justice Department for Possible Criminal Prosecution")
![["Congressman Glenn English received a letter from Bruce Hillenbrand, Director of OSHA's Federal-State Operations, stating that OSHA cannot support the Oklahoma Department of Labor's demonstration project on asbestos abatement due to lack of funding. Although OSHA provided partial help with the indirect cost rate, they could not fund the full amount needed. Commissioner Bill Paulk was informed of this decision and encouraged to resubmit the proposal for funding in Fiscal 1985. OSHA did not receive an increase in appropriations for consultation in FY 1984, making it impossible to consider the proposal under their current budget."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/Glenn%20Lee%20English,%20Jr.%20Collection/CAC_CC_017_3_170_14_0000-Labor,%20Occupational%20Safety%20and%20Health%20Administration,%201983-1984,%201986/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_017_3_170_14_0016_thumbnail.jpg "Proposed Oil and Gas Well Drilling Safety Standards: Response from George E.

![["The United States Department of Labor's Occupational Safety and Health Administration is sending out FY 1987 Consultation Cooperative Agreement packages to states. There is a new 20% cap on indirect costs for funding, and changes in budget details, personnel identification, and performance data are noted. The budget request includes a restoration of previous reductions and a 3.7% increase for mandatory costs. Recipients are advised to carefully follow guidelines for allocating costs and projecting expenses. Additional assistance is available from designated officers."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/Glenn%20Lee%20English,%20Jr.%20Collection/CAC_CC_017_3_170_14_0000-Labor,%20Occupational%20Safety%20and%20Health%20Administration,%201983-1984,%201986/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_017_3_170_14_0017_thumbnail.jpg "Title: Funding Issues for Oklahoma Department of Labor Asbestos Abatement Project")
