SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Workforce Investment Streamlined Performance Reporting (WISPR) System features a set of aggregate quarterly reports for capturing services to employer and job seeker customers, including a special aggregate report on services to the nation’s eligible veterans and transitioning service members. A standardized set of participant data that includes information on demographics, types of services received, and performance outcomes based on a set of common measures defined consistently across programs is a key component of this reporting system. The WISPR System also incorporates provisions to ensure the integrity of reported data and resolve data collection and reliability issues raised by the DOL Office of the Inspector General and the Government Accountability Office regarding the Department’s ability accurately to evaluate program performance. 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.
