Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 106 / Tuesday, June 3, 2014 / Notices
jobs in legitimate businesses. 48 U.S.C.
1806(d)(5)(C)(v). In order for us to
properly assess the CNMI’s workforce in
the future, we request that the CNMI
government provide updates to the
Department on a yearly basis about its
good faith efforts to locate, educate,
train, or otherwise prepare U.S. citizens,
lawful permanent residents, and
unemployed alien workers already in
the CNMI.
Section 701 of the CNRA states it is
the intent of the Congress to minimize
potential adverse economic and fiscal
effects of phasing-out CNMI’s
nonresident contract worker program
and to maximize the CNMI’s potential
for future economic and business
growth by, among other things, assuring
that foreign workers are protected from
the potential for abuse and exploitation.
Pub. L. 110–229, Sec. 701(a)(1)(E), 48
U.S.C. 1806 note. The Department
emphasizes the importance of
Congress’s intent in this regard, and
further notes that this notice should not
be construed to alter or amend the
continuing obligations of CNMI
employers to adhere to and comply with
applicable civil rights, labor and
workplace safety laws. Employers in
CNMI remain subject to the array of
federal laws that, among others, ensure
and protect the rights of workers to a
workplace based on fair treatment, and
free of unlawful discrimination and
hazards to safety and health. Those and
other workplace rights will continue to
be applied forcefully by the Department
and other federal agencies with
jurisdiction to administer and enforce
federal worker protection laws.
Signed at Washington, DC, this 27 of May,
2014.
Thomas E. Perez,
Secretary of Labor.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
The Current Employment Statistics
(CES) program provides current
monthly statistics on employment,
hours, and earnings, by industry and
geography. CES estimates are among the
most visible and widely-used Principal
Federal Economic Indicators (PFEIs).
CES data are also among the timeliest of
the PFEIs, with their release each month
by the BLS in the Employment
Situation, typically on the first Friday of
each month. The statistics are
fundamental inputs in economic
decision processes at all levels of
government, private enterprise, and
organized labor.
The CES monthly estimates of
employment, hours, and earnings are
based on a sample of U.S.
nonagricultural establishments.
Information is derived from
approximately 271,400 reports (from a
sample of 144,000 employers with State
Unemployment Insurance (UI) accounts
comprised of 554,000 individual
worksites), as of January 2014. Each
month, firms report their employment,
payroll, and hours on forms identified
as the BLS–790. The sample is collected
under a probability-based design. Puerto
Rico and the Virgin Islands collect an
additional 7,400 reports.
A list of all form types currently used
appears in the table below. Respondents
receive variations of the basic collection
forms, depending on their industry.
The CES program is a voluntary
program under Federal statute.
Reporting to the State agencies is
voluntary in all but four States (Oregon,
Washington, North Carolina, and South
Carolina), Puerto Rico, and the Virgin
