    To solicit input from a diverse array of stakeholders, the 
Department of Labor (DOL) has directly engaged Congress, external 
stakeholders, and its own employees through agency outreach and by 
posting the Draft Strategic Plan on the DOL Web site. Thirteen DOL 
agencies (those contributing directly to the 14 outcome goals) have 
provided highlights of their measures and strategies in user-friendly

comments.

``Good Jobs for Everyone.'' Comments were distributed to the relevant 
agencies for consideration and changes were made to the plan as 
appropriate. The Office of Management and Budget has also reviewed and 
provided detailed comments on the Draft Strategic Plan, and additional
