prior to the requested OMB approval
date.
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

Description: The National
Compensation Survey (NCS) is an
ongoing survey of earnings and benefits
among private firms, State, and local
government. NCS is the integration of
the sampling, collection, and processing
for the Employment Cost Index (ECI),
the Employee Benefits Survey (EBS),
and the Locality Pay Surveys (LPS) into
a single, unified program of
compensation statistics. This integration
improves data for policymakers and
researchers, reduces respondent burden,
improves the utilization of BLS
resources, and enhances the published
measures of compensation. Data from
the integrated program include
estimates of wages by job levels
covering broad groups of related
occupations, and data that directly links
benefit plan costs with detailed plan
provisions. The integrated program’s
single sample also produces both timeseries indexes and cost levels for
industry and occupational groups,
thereby increasing the analytical
potential of the data. Benefits of the
integrated sample include: improved
measures of trends; better integration of
benefit costs and plan provisions; data
for narrow occupations; and broad
regional and occupational coverage.
NCS employs probability methods for
selection of occupations. This ensures
that sampled occupations represent all
occupations in the workforce, while
minimizing the reporting burden on
respondents. Data from the NCS are
critical for setting Federal white-collar
salaries, determining monetary policy

(as a Principal Federal Economic
Indicator), and for compensation
administrators and researchers in the
private sector. The survey collects data
from a sample of employers. The data
consist of information about the duties,
responsibilities, and compensation
(earnings and benefits) for a sample of
occupations for each sampled employer.
The NCS is proposing to add two
questions on domestic partner benefits.
This collection timeline will allow data
on domestic partner benefits to be
published in 2011. These questions will
only be asked of wage and benefits
sample members who offer defined
benefit (DB) and/or health benefits to
their employees. Currently in private
industry DB plans are offered in 11% of
establishments and health benefits to
63%. In State and local governments DB
access is 84% and health benefits access
is 88%. These two questions will add
approximately 180 hours annually to
private industry sample respondent
burden hours (14,614 total sample of
private establishments). For the
government sample these two questions
will add approximately 62 hours
annually to government respondent
burden hours (2,164 total sample of
State and local government
establishments).
Why are we requesting Emergency
Processing? Emergency clearance is
being sought for the National
Compensation Survey for the purpose of
the addition of two questions on
domestic partner benefits to the existing
‘‘Other Benefits’’ questions. The
Department of Labor’s LGBT (Lesbian,
Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender)

actions on the proposed Domestic

Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
Partnership Benefits and Obligations
Act (HR 2517) have greatly increased
the need for information on domestic
partner benefits in both private industry
and State and local governments. In
order for BLS to produce data in 2011,
NCS data collection of these questions
must begin in September 2010 during
the NCS collection quarter (which starts
September 16, 2010).
The BLS will submit an ICR
immediately following this approval, as
the current NCS package expires in
January 2011. This ICR will be
submitted to OMB under the standard
clearance process and will give the
public a second opportunity chance to
comment on this collection in
accordance with PRA95 (44 USC 3506).
