OSHA’s Directorate of Cooperative and State Programs (DCSP) in Washington has released the 2023 VPP PSM Supplement B template (XLSX file attached below) for immediate distribution to VPP participants covered by OSHA’s PSM standard. VPP Sites with PSM-covered processes are required to complete the PSM Supplement B as a part of the annual VPP Self-evaluation. If your VPP Site is one of the six (6) sites listed above, your VPP Site does need to submit a completed 2023 PSM Supplement B. If your VPP Sites in not one of the six (6) VPP Sites listed above and your site has not added a PSM-covered chemical process in 2023, your site does not have to submit a PSM Supplement B. If your VPP Site has added a PSM-covered chemical process in 2023, please contact me ASAP. The deadline for PSM-covered VPP Sites to submit the 2023 PSM Supplement B is February 15, 2024. Region 2’s PSM-covered VPP Sites can email the completed spreadsheet to me and Greta Olsson ( olsson.greta@dol.gov ), and/or you can submit the 2023 PSM Supplement B with your site’s online 2023 VPP Self-evaluation as an attached file.
NOTE: The template has changed since last year, so please be sure to use the attached file. DCSP will not accept submissions using last year’s template – the current year’s template must be completed if your VPP site has a PSM-covered process.
If you have any questions about the PSM Supplement B, please feel free to contact me or Jackie Annis in DCSP ( annis.jackie@dol.gov ). Thank you for participating in the Voluntary Protection Program.
