SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
The Office of Federal Contract
Compliance Programs (OFCCP)
administers three nondiscrimination
and equal employment opportunity
laws. These authorities prohibit
employment discrimination and require
affirmative action to ensure that equal
employment opportunities are available
regardless of race, sex, color, national
origin, religion, or status as a qualified
individual with a disability or protected
veteran by Federal contractors.
• Executive Order 11246, as amended
(EO 11246);
• Section 503 of the Rehabilitation
Act of 1973, as amended, 29 U.S.C. 793;
and
• The affirmative action provisions of
the Vietnam Era Veterans’ Readjustment
Assistance Act of 1974, as amended,
38 U.S.C. 4212.
For purpose of this clearance, the
regulations implementing Executive
Order 11246 permit Federal supply and
service contractors to develop
affirmative action programs (AAPs) that
are based on business function or
business unit rather than AAPs based on
establishments.1 Functional affirmative
action programs (FAAPs) are designed
to provide contractors with the option of
creating AAPs that better fit their
business needs. To develop and
implement a FAAP, Federal contractors
must receive written approval from the
Director 2 of OFCCP. On March 21,
2002, OFCCP issued guidance outlining
procedures for approving contractors’
requests to use functional AAPs.3
Subsequently, on June 14, 2011, OFCCP
issued new guidance and established
standard procedures for FAAP
approvals.4 This Information Collection
Request (ICR) addresses the collection of
information associated with the process
for obtaining, modifying, updating, and
renewing an agreement that allows
contractors to develop and use
functional AAPs.

II. Review Focus
The Department of Labor is
particularly interested in comments
which:
• Evaluate whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary
for the compliance and enforcement
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
other forms of information technology,
e.g., permitting electronic submissions
of responses.
III. Current Actions
The Department of Labor seeks the
approval of this new ICR so that it can
enforce the anti-discrimination and
affirmative action provisions of the legal
authorities it administers.

DEPARTMENT OF LABOR
Office of the Secretary
Dominican Republic-Central AmericaUnited States Free Trade Agreement;
Notice of Determination Regarding
Review of Submission #2012–01
Bureau of International Labor
Affairs, U.S. Department of Labor.
ACTION: Notice.
AGENCY:
The Office of Trade and Labor
Affairs (OTLA) gives notice that on May
14, 2012, Submission #2012–01
regarding Honduras was accepted for
review pursuant to Article 16.4.3 of the
Dominican Republic-Central AmericaUnited States Free Trade Agreement
(CAFTA–DR).
On March 26, 2012, the AFL–CIO and
27 Honduran civil society and worker
organizations provided a formal
submission to OTLA alleging violations
of the Labor Chapter (Chapter 16) of the
CAFTA–DR stemming from the
Government of Honduras’ (GOH’s)
actions or failure to act. The submission
alleges that the GOH’s actions or lack
thereof denied workers at factories in
the apparel and auto parts
manufacturing sectors, plantations in
the agricultural sector, and enterprises
at the Port of Cortez their rights under
Honduran labor law relating to freedom
of association, the right to organize, the
right to bargain collectively, child labor,
and acceptable conditions of work. The
submitters also allege the GOH is in
violation of the CAFTA–DR due to
recently passed legislation which
weakens workers rights and on-going
deficiencies in its laws and legal system.
The objective of the review of the
submission will be to gather information
so that OTLA can better understand the
allegations therein and publicly report
on the U.S. Government’s views
regarding whether the GOH’s actions
were consistent with its obligations
under the Labor Chapter of the CAFTA–
DR.
DATES: Effective Date: May 14, 2012.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Article
16.4.3 of the Labor Chapter of the
CAFTA–DR establishes that each Party’s
contact point shall provide for the
submission, receipt, and consideration
of public communications
(‘‘submissions’’) on matters related to
provisions of the Labor Chapter and
shall review those submissions in
accordance with domestic procedures.
A Federal Register notice issued on
December 21, 2006 informed the public
that the OTLA had been designated as
the office to serve as the contact point
for implementing the CAFTA–DR’s
labor provisions. The same Federal
Register notice informed the public of
the Procedural Guidelines that OTLA
would follow for the receipt and review
of public submissions (71 FR 76691
(2006)). These Procedural Guidelines
are available at https://www.dol.gov/ilab/
programs/otla/procedural
guidelines.htm. According to the
definitions contained in the Procedural
Guidelines (Section B) a ‘‘submission’’
is a communication from the public
containing specific allegations,
accompanied by relevant supporting
information, that another Party has
failed to meet its commitments or
obligations arising under a labor chapter
of a U.S. free trade agreement.
The Procedural Guidelines specify
that OTLA shall consider six factors, to
the extent that they are relevant, in
determining whether to accept a
submission for review:
1. Whether the submission raises
issues relevant to any matter arising
under a labor chapter;
2. Whether a review would further the
objectives of a labor chapter;
3. Whether the submission clearly
identifies the person filing the
submission, is signed and dated, and is
sufficiently specific to determine the
nature of the request and permit an
appropriate review;
4. Whether the statements contained
in the submission, if substantiated,
would constitute a failure of the other
Party to comply with its obligations or
commitments under a labor chapter;
5. Whether the statements contained
in the submission or available
information demonstrate that
appropriate relief has been sought under
the domestic laws of the other Party, or
that the matter or a related matter is
pending before an international body;
and
6. Whether the submission is
substantially similar to a recent
submission and significant, new
information has been furnished that
PO 00000
Frm 00070
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703

would substantially differentiate the
submission from the one previously
filed.
U.S. Submission #2012–01 alleges
that the GOH’s actions or lack thereof
denied workers their rights under the
laws of Honduras, citing specific
instances allegedly demonstrating: An
inability or unwillingness to find and
remedy labor violations, failure of labor
inspectors to use all means provided for
under the Labor Code to gain access to
facilities for inspections or to serve
notice of union establishment and
protections, improper or questionable
practices of Ministry of Labor and Social
Security (STSS) employees in the
enforcement of labor laws, failure of
STSS officials to grant union
recognition or verify mandated
corrections of violations uncovered by
an inspection in the legally established
timeframe, government mediation that
failed to afford workers benefits meeting
the standards established in the Labor
Code, and lengthy proceedings that
effectively served to deny workers their
labor rights.
In determining whether to accept the
submission, OTLA considered the
relevant factors in light of the
statements in the submission and its
supporting documentation. The
submission clearly identifies the
submitter, is signed and dated, and is
sufficiently specific to determine the
nature of the request and permit an
appropriate review. It also raises issues
relevant to the Labor Chapter of the
CAFTA–DR, citing numerous problems
in the apparel and auto parts
manufacturing, agriculture, and port
sectors that the submitters believe are in
violation of Honduras’ labor laws. The
submission raises pertinent issues that
could further the objectives of the Labor
Chapter and that could, if substantiated,
constitute a failure of the GOH to
comply with its obligations under the
Labor Chapter. The submitters provided
information on several specific cases of
alleged labor violations and included a
list of articles of the Labor Code, the
Constitution of Honduras, and ILO
Conventions that they believe were
violated by the allegations in the
submission. The submitters provided
information on efforts to seek
appropriate relief for these alleged
violations under domestic laws and to
raise the issues with GOH officials. The
submission also notes that the issues in
the submission have not been remedied
to date. OTLA has not received similar
submissions related to Honduras.
Accordingly, OTLA has accepted the
submission for review.
OTLA’s decision to accept the
submission for review is not intended to
