One record per lab-standard pair. OSHA publishes each lab's scope on a separate page and publishes no cross-lab view, so answering 'which NRTLs can certify to UL 507?' or 'is DEKRA recognized for ANSI/AAMI ES 60601-1?' or 'which labs besides UL can certify commercial cooking appliances?' today means opening up to 21 pages and searching each one. The recognition matters commercially: a product that 29 CFR 1910.7 requires to be NRTL-certified must be certified by a lab whose scope covers the applicable standard, and manufacturers choosing a lab, buyers verifying a certification mark, and safety engineers checking whether a mark is valid for a given standard all need the standard-to-lab direction that OSHA does not publish.29 30## Provenance — what every record carries31 32Every record carries `source` (the URL the value was read from) and33`source_quote` (a verbatim quote from that page stating it). A value you34cannot check against its page is indistinguishable from an invented one;35these can all be checked. Each record is also individually addressable on36the canonical site at its `url`.37 38## Licence position39 40US federal government work. osha.gov pages are publications of a federal agency and carry no copyright; each record cites the lab's scope page and quotes the table row verbatim.41 42Facts are not copyrightable; what this dataset takes from each source is a43fact plus a short attributed quote linking back to the page that states it.44 45## Sources46 47- https://www.osha.gov/nationally-recognized-testing-laboratory-program/BACL48- https://www.osha.gov/nationally-recognized-testing-laboratory-program/csl49- https://www.osha.gov/nationally-recognized-testing-laboratory-program/csa50- https://www.osha.gov/nationally-recognized-testing-laboratory-program/dekra51- https://www.osha.gov/nationally-recognized-testing-laboratory-program/element52- https://www.osha.gov/nationally-recognized-testing-laboratory-program/met53- https://www.osha.gov/nationally-recognized-testing-laboratory-program/fm54- https://www.osha.gov/nationally-recognized-testing-laboratory-program/iapmo55- https://www.osha.gov/nationally-recognized-testing-laboratory-program/its56- https://www.osha.gov/nationally-recognized-testing-laboratory-program/jet57- https://www.osha.gov/nationally-recognized-testing-laboratory-program/lc58- https://www.osha.gov/nationally-recognized-testing-laboratory-program/nna59- https://www.osha.gov/nationally-recognized-testing-laboratory-program/nsf60- https://www.osha.gov/nationally-recognized-testing-laboratory-program/qai61- https://www.osha.gov/nationally-recognized-testing-laboratory-program/qps62- https://www.osha.gov/nationally-recognized-testing-laboratory-program/sgs63- https://www.osha.gov/nationally-recognized-testing-laboratory-program/solarptl64- https://www.osha.gov/nationally-recognized-testing-laboratory-program/swri65- https://www.osha.gov/nationally-recognized-testing-laboratory-program/tuvam66- https://www.osha.gov/nationally-recognized-testing-laboratory-program/tuv67- https://www.osha.gov/nationally-recognized-testing-laboratory-program/ul68 69## Fields70 71See any record in `data/records.jsonl` — field names are self-describing,72and the canonical page for each record renders them with labels:73https://referencesource.org/nrtl-recognition-scopes/74
