DEPARTMENT OF LABOR
Office of the Secretary
Submission for OMB Review:
Comment Request
September 14, 2005.
The Department of Labor (DOL) has
submitted the following public
information collection request (ICR) to
the Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) for review and approval in
accordance with the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995 (Pub. L. 104–13,
44 U.S.C. chapter 35). A copy of this
ICR, with applicable supporting
documentation, may be obtained by
contacting Darrin King on 202–693–
4129 (this is not a toll-free number) or
e-mail: king.darrin@dol.gov.
Comments should be sent to Office of
Information and Regulatory Affairs,
Attn: OMB Desk Officer for the Bureau
of Labor Statistics (BLS), Office of
Management and Budget, Room 10235,
Washington, DC 20503, 202–395–7316
(this is not a toll-free number), within
30 days from the date of this publication
in the Federal Register.
The OMB 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, including through the
use of appropriate automated,
electronic, mechanical, or other
technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology,
e.g., permitting electronic submission of
responses.
Agency: Bureau of Labor Statistics.
Type of Review: Reinstatement,
without change, of a previously
approved collection.
Title: Displaced Worker, Job Tenure,
and Occupational Mobility Supplement
to CPS.
OMB Number: 1220–0104.
Type of Response: Reporting.
Affected Public: Individuals or
households.
Frequency: Biennially.
Number of Respondents: 55,000.
Annual Responses: 55,000.
VerDate Aug<31>2005

Jkt 205001
Average Response Time: 8 minutes.
Estimated Annual Burden Hours:
7,333.
Total Annualized capital/startup
costs: $0.
Total Annual Costs (operating/
maintaining systems or purchasing
services): $0.
Description: This supplement will
gather information on workers who have
lost or left their jobs because their plant
or company closed or moved, there was
insufficient work for them to do, or their
position or shift was abolished. For
those workers who have been
reemployed, the survey will gather data
on the types of jobs they found and will
compare current earnings with those
from the lost job. This will assist in
developing training programs that will
provide other displaced workers with
the skills necessary to adjust to the
changing economic environment.
The incidence and nature of
occupational changes in the preceding
year will be queried. The survey also
will obtain information on the length of
time workers (including those who have
not been displaced) have been with
their current employer. Tenure data are
used to calculate displacement rates for
long-tenured workers so that
comparisons can be made over time and
among different worker groups.
Additional data to be collected include
information on the receipt of
unemployment compensation, the loss
of health insurance coverage, and the
length of time spent without a job. In
combination, these supplemental data
will provide the information needed to
assess the economic hardship
experienced by displaced workers.
The information collected by this
survey will be used to determine the
size and nature of the population
affected by job displacements and the
need for and necessary scope of
programs serving adult displaced
workers. It will also be used to assess
employment stability by determining
the length of time workers have been
with their current employer and
estimating the incidence of occupational
change over the course of a year.
Combining the questions on
displacement, job tenure, and
occupational mobility will enable
analysts to obtain a more complete
picture of employment stability.

ACTION:
Notice.
SUMMARY: The Department of Labor, as
part of its continuing effort to reduce
paperwork and respondent burden,
conducts a pre-clearance consultation
program to provide the general public
and Federal agencies with an
opportunity to comment on proposed
and/or continuing collections of
information in accordance with the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
(PRA95) [44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)]. This
program helps to ensure that requested
data can be provided in the desired
format, the reporting burden (time and
financial resources) is minimized, the
collection instruments are clearly
understood, and the impact of collection
requirements on respondents can be
properly assessed. The Employment and
Training Administration (ETA) is
soliciting comments on the
establishment of a reporting and
recordkeeping system to support
implementation of the Prisoner Reentry
Initiative (PRI).
Submit comments on or before
November 22, 2005.
