According to a news release, the secretary will select 14 members representing employers, employees, state safety and health agencies and the public to create a broad-based, balanced and diverse committee. The remaining representative is designated by the Secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services.

Members generally serve a two-year term and can be appointed to successive terms. The advisory committee meets two to four times per year.
