Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 71 / Thursday, April 14, 2005 / Notices
Without the data provided by this
collection, DOL does not have the
ability to evaluate the effectiveness of
any of these targeted recruiting
strategies because collection of racial
and national origin information only
occurs at the point of hiring. DOL needs
to collect data on the pools of applicants
which result from the various targeted
recruitment strategies listed above. After
the certification and selection process
has been completed, it is necessary to
cross-reference the data collected with
the outcome of the qualifications review
in order to evaluate the quality of
applicants from various recruitment
sources. With the information from this
collection, DOL can adjust and redirect
its targeted recruitment to achieve the
best result. DOL will also be able to
respond to requests for information
received from the Office of Personnel
Management (OPM) in the course of
OPM evaluation and oversight activities.
II. Desired Focus of Comments
The Department of Labor is
particularly interested in comments
which:
• Evaluate whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary
for the proper performance of the
functions of the agency, including
whether the information will have
practical utility;
• evaluate the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information,
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;
• enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and
• minimize the burden of the
collection of information on those who
are to respond, for example, through the
use of appropriate automated,
electronic, mechanical, or other
technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology,
e.g., permitting electronic submissions
of responses.
III. Current Actions
This notice requests an extension of
the current Office of Management and
Budget approval of the Applicant
Background Questionnaire. Extension is
necessary to continue to evaluate the
effectiveness of agency recruitment
programs in attracting applicants from
under-represented sectors of the
population.
Type of Review: Extension of a
currently approved collection.
Agency: U.S. Department of Labor.
Title: Applicant Background
Questionnaire.
OMB Number: 1225–0072.
Affected Public: Applicants for
positions recruited in the Department of
Labor.
Total Respondents: 3000.
Frequency: one time per respondent.
Total Responses: 3000.
Average Time per Response: 3
minutes.
Estimated Total Burden Hours: 150
hours.
Total Burden Cost (capital/startup):
$0.
Total Burden Cost (operating/
maintaining): $78.82.
Comments submitted in response to
this notice will be summarized and/or
included in the request for Office of
Management and Budget approval of the
information collection request; they will
also become a matter of public record.
Dated: April 6, 2005.
