The
information collection allows the ETA
to determine the number of aliens filing
for unemployment insurance, the
number of benefit issues detected and
the denials resulting from the U.S.
Citizenship and Immigration Services
(USCIS) Systematic Alien Verification
for Entitlement (SAVE) Program. From
these data, the ETA can determine the
extent to which State agencies use the
system, and the overall effectiveness
and cost efficiency of the USCIS SAVE
verification system.
This information collection is subject
to the PRA. A Federal agency generally
cannot conduct or sponsor a collection
of information, and the public is
generally not required to respond to an
information collection, unless it is
approved by the OMB under the PRA
and displays a currently valid OMB
Control Number. In addition,
notwithstanding any other provisions of
law, no person shall generally be subject
to penalty for failing to comply with a
collection of information if the
collection of information does not
display a valid OMB control number.
See 5 CFR 1320.5(a) and 1320.6. The
DOL obtains OMB approval for this
information collection under OMB
Control Number 1205–0268. The current
OMB approval is scheduled to expire on
July 31, 2011; however, it should be
noted that information collections
submitted to the OMB receive a monthto-month extension while they undergo
review. For additional information, see
the related notice published in the
Federal Register on March 8, 2011 (76
FR 12758).
Interested parties are encouraged to
send comments to the OMB, Office of
Information and Regulatory Affairs at
the address shown in the ADDRESSES
section within 30 days of publication of
this notice in the Federal Register. In
order to help ensure appropriate
consideration, comments should
reference OMB Control Number 1205–
0268. The OMB is particularly
interested in comments that:
• 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

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
The ATUS is the Nation’s first
Federally administered, continuous
survey on time use in the United States.
It measures, for example, time spent
with children, working, sleeping, or
doing leisure activities. In the United
States, several existing Federal surveys
collect income and wage data for
individuals and families, and analysts
often use such measures of material
prosperity as proxies for quality of life.
Time-use data substantially augment
these quality-of-life measures. The data
also can be used in conjunction with
wage data to evaluate the contribution
of non-market work to national
economies. This enables comparisons of
production between nations that have
different mixes of market and nonmarket activities.
The ATUS develops nationally
representative estimates of how people
spend their time. Respondents also
report who was with them during
activities, where they were, how long
VerDate Mar<15>2010
17:36 Jul 12, 2011
Jkt 223001
each activity lasted, and if they were
paid. All of this information has
numerous practical applications for
sociologists, economists, educators,
government policymakers,
businesspersons, health researchers, and
others.
II. Current Action
Office of Management and Budget
clearance is being sought for a 2012
Well-being Module of questions to
follow the American Time Use Survey
(ATUS). The Well-being Module, if
approved, will collect information about
how people experience their time,
specifically how happy, tired, sad,
stressed, and in pain they felt yesterday.
Respondents will be asked these
questions about three randomly-selected
activities from the activities reported in
the ATUS time diary. The time diary
refers to the core part of the ATUS, in
which respondents report the activities
they did from 4 a.m. on the day before
the interview to 4 a.m. on the day of the
interview. A few activities, such as
sleeping and private activities, will
never be selected. The module also will
collect data on whether people were
interacting with anyone while doing the
selected activities and how meaningful
the activities were to them. Some
general health questions, a question
about overall life satisfaction, and a
question about respondents’ overall
emotional experience yesterday also
will be asked.
The data from the proposed Wellbeing Module will support the BLS
mission of providing relevant
information on economic and social
issues. The data will provide a richer
description of work; specifically, it will
measure how workers feel (tired,
stressed, in pain) during work episodes
compared to non-work episodes, and
how often workers interact on the job.
It can also measure whether the amount
of pain workers experience varies by
occupation and disability status.
The data also will closely support the
mission of the module’s sponsor, the
National Institute on Aging (NIA) of the
National Institutes of Health, to improve
the health and well-being of older
Americans. By analyzing the module
data, the experience of pain and aging
can be studied. Some of the questions
that can be answered include:
• Do older workers experience more
pain on and off the job?
• Is the age-pain gradient related to
differences in activities or differences in
the amount of pain experienced during
a given set of activities?
• Do those in poor health spend time
in different activities?
PO 00000
Frm 00118
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
41303
Additionally, the proposed module
will allow researchers to take advantage
of an important change that was made
to the ATUS in 2011. Questions that
identify eldercare providers and
eldercare activities were added to the
survey. The well-being of eldercare
providers is of interest to the NIA and
policymakers because the elderly
population is growing, along with a
reliance on informal care providers to
assist them. A 2012 Well-being Module
would allow researchers to study the
well-being of eldercare providers.
The proposed Well-being Module is
nearly identical to a module that was
collected in 2010 under the ATUS OMB
Number (1220–0175); however, the 2012
version includes two additional
questions and will be collected under a
new OMB Number as a supplement to
the ATUS. These new questions will
collect data on individuals’ overall life
satisfaction and their emotional
experience yesterday. Information about
life satisfaction will complement the
moment-to-moment affect measures of
well-being and provide an additional
dimension to analyses of these data.
Information about individuals’ overall
emotional experience yesterday will be
used to explain variance in responses to
the affect questions.
The proposed Well-being Module will
follow directly after the 2012 ATUS.
ATUS collection is done on a
continuous basis with the sample drawn
monthly. The survey sample is drawn
from households completing their final
month of interviews for the Current
Population Survey (CPS). Households
are selected to ensure a representative
demographic sample, and one
individual from each household is
selected to take part in one Computer
Assisted Telephone Interview. The
interview asks respondents to report all
of their activities for one pre-assigned
24-hour day, the day prior to the
interview. A short series of summary
questions and CPS updates follows the
core time diary collection.
The proposed questions about wellbeing are being sponsored by the NIA.
These questions will replace a module
of questions about leave that is being
fielded for the 2011 calendar year. Like
the 2011 Leave Module, the proposed
2012 Well-being Module also will be
included for 12 months (through
December 2012).
III. Desired Focus of Comments
The Bureau of Labor Statistics is
particularly interested in comments
that:
• Evaluate whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary
for the proper performance of the
E:\FR\FM\13JYN1.SGM

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.
• 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 submissions
of responses.
