Government contractors and subcontractors to post notices informing 
their employees of their rights as employees under Federal labor laws. 
Regulations 29 CFR 471.11 provides for DOL to accept a written 
complaint alleging that a contractor doing business with the Federal 
government has failed to post the notice required by E.O. 13496. The 
section establishes that no special complaint form is required; 
however, a complaint must be in writing. In addition, the complaint

telephone number of the person submitting the complaint and the name 
and address of the Federal contractor alleged to have violated the 
rule. The section also establishes that a written complaint may be 
submitted to either the Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs 
or OLMS.
    This information collection is subject to the PRA. A Federal agency 
generally cannot conduct or sponsor a collection of information, and

collection, unless it is approved by the OMB under the PRA and displays

other provisions of law, no person shall generally be subject to 
penalty for failing to comply with a collection of information that 
does not display a valid Control Number. See 5 CFR 1320.5(a) and

burden of the proposed collection of information, including the 
validity of the methodology and assumptions used;
     Enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the
