AGENCY:
The Department of Labor
(DOL or the Department), as part of its
continuing effort to reduce paperwork

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 (PRA) [44 U.S.C.
3506(c)(2)(A)]. This program helps to
ensure that required 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.
The Department notes that a Federal
agency cannot conduct or sponsor a
collection of information unless it is
approved by the Office of Management
and Budget (OMB) under the PRA and
the related materials display a currently
valid OMB control number. Also,
notwithstanding any other provisions of
law, no person shall be subject to
penalty for failing to comply with a

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
1. Background
The U.S. Department of Labor (DOL)
is performing a pilot study to determine
how to measure workers’ voice in
mining workplaces under the
jurisdiction of DOL’s Mine Safety and
Health Administration (MSHA). DOL’s
working definition for voice in the
workplace is the ‘‘workers’ ability to
access information on their rights in the
workplace, their understanding of those
rights, and their ability to exercise these
rights without fear of discrimination or
retaliation.’’ Voice in the workplace is a
key outcome goal for the Secretary of
Labor and part of her vision of good jobs
for everyone. A separate concurrent
effort will measure workers’ voice in
workplaces under the jurisdiction of
DOL’s Wage and Hour Division (WHD)
and Occupational Safety and Health
Administration (OSHA). Measuring
voice among miners, however, poses
unique data collection challenges,
including implementing a survey in a
setting that feels non-threatening to
mine workers, and asking questions in
a format that reflects mining community
cultures and practices. Thus, DOL is
performing a pilot study to investigate
the efficacy of different data collection
methods and to develop a survey
instrument that is appropriate for the
mining community. The primary
research question is ‘‘What measures of
voice and perceived non-compliance,
combined with what modes of data
collection, could be best used to track
MSHA’s worker protection outreach
activity?’’ This submission covers a set
of 2–3 small-scale pilot data collections.
Data collection for this effort will
employ 2–3 strategies: (1) Submission of
