ACTION:
Notice.
The Department of Labor, as
part of its continuing effort to reduce
paperwork and respondent burden,
conducts a pre-clearance 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
(PRA95) [44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)]. This
program helps to ensure that requested
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 Bureau of Labor
Statistics (BLS) is soliciting comments
concerning the proposed extension of
the ‘‘Multiple Worksite Report and the
Report of Federal Employment and
Wages.’’ A copy of the proposed

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
The Quarterly Census of Employment
and Wages (QCEW) program is a
Federal/State cooperative effort which
compiles monthly employment data,
quarterly wages data, and business
identification information from
employers subject to State
Unemployment Insurance (UI) laws.
These data are collected from State
Quarterly Contribution Reports (QCRs)
submitted to State Workforce Agencies
(SWAs). The States send micro-level
employment and wages data,
supplemented with the names,
addresses, and business identification
information of these employers, to the
BLS. The State data are used to create
the BLS sampling frame, known as the
longitudinal QCEW data. This file
represents the best source of detailed
industrial and geographical data on
employers and is used as the sampling
frame for most BLS surveys. The
longitudinal QCEW data include the
individual employers’ employment and
wages data along with associated
business identification information that
is maintained by each State to
administer the UI program as well as the
Unemployment Compensation for
Federal Employees (UCFE) program.
The QCEW Report, produced for each
calendar quarter, is a summary of these
employer (micro-level) data by industry
at the county level. Similar data for
Federal Government employees covered
by the UCFE program also are included
in each State’s report. These data are
submitted by all 50 States, the District
of Columbia, Puerto Rico, and the Virgin
Islands to the BLS which then
summarizes these micro-level data to
produce totals for the States and the
Nation. The QCEW Report provides a
E:\FR\FM\19DEN1.SGM
19DEN1
75197
Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 244 / Wednesday, December 19, 2012 / Notices
virtual census of nonagricultural
employees and their wages, with nearly
53 percent of the workers in agriculture
covered as well.
For employers having only a single
physical location or worksite in the
State and, thus, operating under a single
assigned industrial and geographical
code, the data from the States’ UI
accounting files are sufficient for
statistical purposes. However, such data
are not sufficient for statistical purposes
for those employers having multiple
establishments or are engaged in
different industrial activities within the
State. In such cases, the employer’s QCR
reflects only statewide employment and
wages and is not disaggregated by
establishment or worksite. Although
data at this level are sufficient for many
purposes of the UI program, more
detailed information is required to
create a sampling frame and to meet the
needs of several ongoing Federal/State
statistical programs. The Multiple
Worksite Report (MWR) is designed to
supplement the QCR when more
detailed information is needed.
Because of the data captured by the
MWR, improved establishment business
identification data elements have been
incorporated into and maintained by the
longitudinal QCEW database. The MWR
collects a physical location address,
secondary name (trade name, division,
subsidiary, etc.), and reporting unit
description (store number, plant name
or number, etc.) for each worksite of
multi-establishment employers.
Employers with more than one
establishment reporting under the same
UI account number within a State are
requested to complete the MWR if the
sum of the employment in all of their
secondary establishments is 10 or
greater. The primary worksite is defined
as the establishment with the greatest
number of employees. Upon receipt of
the first MWR form, each employer is
requested to supply business location
identification information. Thereafter,
this reported information is printed on
the MWR form each quarter. The
employer is requested to verify the
accuracy of this business location
Form No.
identification information and to
provide only the employment and
wages for each worksite for that quarter.
By using a standardized form, the
reporting burden on many large
employers, especially those engaged in
multiple economic activities at various
locations across numerous States, has
been reduced.
The function of the Report of Federal
Employment and Wages (RFEW) is to
collect employment and wages data for
Federal establishments covered under
the UCFE program. The MWR and
RFEW are essentially the same. The
MWR/RFEW forms are designed to
collect data for each establishment of a
multi-establishment employer.
No other standardized report is
available to collect current
establishment-level monthly
employment and wages data by SWAs
for statistical purposes each quarter
from the private sector or State and local
governments. Also, no other
standardized report currently is
available to collect installation-level
Federal monthly employment and
wages data each quarter by SWAs for
statistical purposes. Completion of the
MWR is required by State law in 28
States and territories.
II. Current Action
Office of Management and Budget
clearance is being sought for an
extension of the Multiple Worksite
Report and the Report of Federal
Employment and Wages.
The BLS has taken steps to help
reduce employer reporting burden by
developing a standardized format for
employers to use to send these data to
the States in an electronic medium. The
BLS also established an Electronic Data
Interchange (EDI) Collection Center to
improve and expedite the MWR
collection process. Employers who
complete the MWR for multi-location
businesses can now submit employment
and wages information on any
electronic medium directly to the data
collection center, rather than separately
to each State agency. The data collection
center then distributes the appropriate

respondents

Respondent
data to the respective States. The BLS
also has been working very closely with
firms providing payroll and tax filing
services for employers as well as the
developers of payroll and tax filing
software to include electronic reporting.
In addition, the BLS has developed a
Web-based system, MWRweb, to collect
these data from small to medium-size
businesses. All States are participating
in MWRweb and BLS has seen much
greater utilization of this reporting
option.
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
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.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
The Quarterly Census of Employment and Wages (QCEW) program is a
Federal/State cooperative effort which compiles monthly employment
data, quarterly wages data, and business identification information
from employers subject to State Unemployment Insurance (UI) laws. These
data are collected from State Quarterly Contribution Reports (QCRs)
submitted to State Workforce Agencies (SWAs). The States send micro-
level employment and wages data, supplemented with the names,
addresses, and business identification information of these employers,
to the BLS. The State data are used to create the BLS sampling frame,
known as the longitudinal QCEW data. This file represents the best
source of detailed industrial and geographical data on employers and is
used as the sampling frame for most BLS surveys. The longitudinal QCEW
data include the individual employers' employment and wages data along
with associated business identification information that is maintained
by each State to administer the UI program as well as the Unemployment
Compensation for Federal Employees (UCFE) program.
The QCEW Report, produced for each calendar quarter, is a summary
of these employer (micro-level) data by industry at the county level.
Similar data for Federal Government employees covered by the UCFE
program also are included in each State's report. These data are
submitted by all 50 States, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, and
the Virgin Islands to the BLS which then summarizes these micro-level
data to produce totals for the States and the Nation. The QCEW Report
provides a
[[Page 75197]]
virtual census of nonagricultural employees and their wages, with
nearly 53 percent of the workers in agriculture covered as well.
For employers having only a single physical location or worksite in
the State and, thus, operating under a single assigned industrial and
geographical code, the data from the States' UI accounting files are
sufficient for statistical purposes. However, such data are not
sufficient for statistical purposes for those employers having multiple
establishments or are engaged in different industrial activities within
the State. In such cases, the employer's QCR reflects only statewide
employment and wages and is not disaggregated by establishment or
worksite. Although data at this level are sufficient for many purposes
of the UI program, more detailed information is required to create a
sampling frame and to meet the needs of several ongoing Federal/State
statistical programs. The Multiple Worksite Report (MWR) is designed to
supplement the QCR when more detailed information is needed.
Because of the data captured by the MWR, improved establishment
business identification data elements have been incorporated into and
maintained by the longitudinal QCEW database. The MWR collects a
physical location address, secondary name (trade name, division,
subsidiary, etc.), and reporting unit description (store number, plant
name or number, etc.) for each worksite of multi-establishment
employers.
Employers with more than one establishment reporting under the same
UI account number within a State are requested to complete the MWR if
the sum of the employment in all of their secondary establishments is
10 or greater. The primary worksite is defined as the establishment
with the greatest number of employees. Upon receipt of the first MWR
form, each employer is requested to supply business location
identification information. Thereafter, this reported information is
printed on the MWR form each quarter. The employer is requested to
verify the accuracy of this business location identification
information and to provide only the employment and wages for each
worksite for that quarter. By using a standardized form, the reporting
burden on many large employers, especially those engaged in multiple
economic activities at various locations across numerous States, has
been reduced.
The function of the Report of Federal Employment and Wages (RFEW)
is to collect employment and wages data for Federal establishments
covered under the UCFE program. The MWR and RFEW are essentially the
same. The MWR/RFEW forms are designed to collect data for each
establishment of a multi-establishment employer.
No other standardized report is available to collect current
establishment-level monthly employment and wages data by SWAs for
statistical purposes each quarter from the private sector or State and
local governments. Also, no other standardized report currently is
available to collect installation-level Federal monthly employment and
wages data each quarter by SWAs for statistical purposes. Completion of
the MWR is required by State law in 28 States and territories.
II. Current Action
Office of Management and Budget clearance is being sought for an
extension of the Multiple Worksite Report and the Report of Federal
Employment and Wages.
The BLS has taken steps to help reduce employer reporting burden by
developing a standardized format for employers to use to send these
data to the States in an electronic medium. The BLS also established an
Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) Collection Center to improve and
expedite the MWR collection process. Employers who complete the MWR for
multi-location businesses can now submit employment and wages
information on any electronic medium directly to the data collection
center, rather than separately to each State agency. The data
collection center then distributes the appropriate data to the
respective States. The BLS also has been working very closely with
firms providing payroll and tax filing services for employers as well
as the developers of payroll and tax filing software to include
electronic reporting. In addition, the BLS has developed a Web-based
system, MWRweb, to collect these data from small to medium-size
businesses. All States are participating in MWRweb and BLS has seen
much greater utilization of this reporting option.
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 functions of the agency,
including whether the information will have practical utility.
Evaluate the accuracy of the agency's estimate of the
