BILLING CODE 4510–FW–P
DEPARTMENT OF LABOR
Comment Request for Proposed
Information Collection for
Occupational Code Assignment;
Extension Without Revisions
AGENCY: Employment and Training
Administration.
ACTION: Notice.
SUMMARY: The Department of Labor, as
part of its continuing effort to reduce
paperwork and respondent burden
conducts a preclearance 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, reporting burden (time and
financial resources) is minimized,
collection instruments are clearly
understood, and the impact of collection
requirements on respondents can be
properly assessed. Currently, the
Employment and Training
Administration is soliciting comments
concerning the collection of data about
the Occupational Code Assignment
Form (ETA 741), which expires on
January 31, 2010. A copy of the
proposed information collection request
(ICR) can be obtained by contacting the
office listed below in the ADDRESSES
section of this notice.
DATES: Written comments must be
submitted to the office listed in the
addressee’s section below on or before
January 29, 2010.
ADDRESSES: Submit written comments

Workforce Investment, Employment and
Training Administration, Mail Stop S–

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: I.
Background: The Occupational Code
Assignment form (ETA 741) was
developed as a public service to the
users of the Occupational Information
Network (O*NET), in an effort to help
them in obtaining occupational codes
and titles for jobs that they were unable
to locate in O*NET.
The O*NET system classifies nearly
all jobs in the United States economy.
However, new specialties are constantly
evolving and emerging. The use of the
OCA is voluntary and is provided (1) As
a uniform format to the public and
private sector to submit information in
order to receive assistance in identifying
an occupational code, (2) to provide
input to a database of alternative (lay)
titles to facilitate searches for
occupational information in the O*NET
OnLine (https://online.onetcenter.org),
O*NET Code Connector (https://
www.onetcodeconnector.org), as well as
America’s Career InfoNet (https://
www.acinet.org), and (3) to assist the
O*NET system in identifying potential
occupations that may need to be
included in future O*NET data
collection efforts. The OCA process is
designed to help the occupational
information user relate an occupational
specialty or a job title to an occupational
code and title within the framework of
the Standard Occupational
Classification (SOC) based O*NET
system. The O*NET–SOC system
consists of a database that organizes the
work done by individuals into
approximately 1,000 occupational
categories. In addition, O*NET
occupations have associated data on the
importance and level of a range of
occupational characteristics and
requirements, including Knowledge,
Skills, Abilities, Tasks, and Work
Activities. Since the O*NET–SOC
system is based on the 2000 SOC
system, identifying an O*NET–SOC
code and title also facilitates linkage to
National, State, and local occupational
employment and wage estimates.
II. Review Focus:
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,
