Providing for congressional disapproval under chapter 8 of title 5, United States Code, of the rule submitted by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration relating to "Worker Walkaround Representative Designation Process".

House Joint Resolution 147 seeks to disapprove an Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) rule that would have established a process for workers to designate a representative to accompany OSHA inspectors during workplace safety inspections. The rule, published in the Federal Register on April 1, 2024, aimed to formalize this "walkaround" representative process during inspections. Under a federal disapproval procedure (Chapter 8 of Title 5, U.S. Code), this resolution would invalidate the rule if passed. As a result, the designated representative process would not take effect, meaning OSHA inspections would proceed without this specific worker representation mechanism.
