Affected Entities: Parties affected by this information collection are private sector employers and labor unions involved in interstate commerce who file notices for mediation services to the FMCS. Frequency: Parties complete this form once, which is at the time of an impending expiration of a collective bargaining agreement.

The Act requires that parties notify FMCS within thirty days after such notice of the existence of a bargaining dispute (29 U.S.C. 158(d)(3)). The 1974 amendments to the National Labor Relations Act extended coverage to nonprofit health care institutions, including similar notices to FMCS. 29 U.S.C. 158(d) and (g).

The purpose of this information collection activity is for FMCS to comply with its statutory duty to receive these notices, to facilitate assignment of mediators to assist in labor disputes, and to assist the parties in knowing whether or not proper notice was given. The information from these notices is sent electronically to the appropriate field manager who assigns the cases to a mediator so that the mediator may contact labor and management quickly, efficiently, and offer dispute resolution services.

The annual hour burden is estimated at 2,400 hours, approximately 10 minutes for each notice to fill out a one-page form. II. Request for Comments FMCS solicits comments to: (i) Evaluate whether the proposed collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the agency, including whether the information to be collected will have practical utility.

    Type of Request: Request for Renewal of a previously approved

    Abstract: Under the Labor Management Relations Act of 1947, 29 
U.S.C. 158(d), Congress listed specific notice provisions so that no 
party to a collective bargaining agreement can terminate or modify a 
collective bargaining contract, unless the party wishing to terminate 
or modify the contract sends a written notice to the other party sixty 
days prior to the expiration date (29 U.S.C. 158(d)(1)), and offers to 
meet and confer with the other party for the purpose of negotiating a 
new or modified contract (29 U.S.C. 158(d)(2)). The Act requires that 
parties notify FMCS within thirty days after such notice of the 
existence of a bargaining dispute (29 U.S.C. 158(d)(3)). The 1974 
amendments to the National Labor Relations Act extended coverage to 
nonprofit health care institutions, including similar notices to FMCS. 
29 U.S.C. 158(d) and (g). To facilitate handling around 14,400 notices 
a year, FMCS created information collection form F-7. The purpose of 
this information collection activity is for FMCS to comply with its

email address and official contact, contract expiration date or renewal 
date, whether the notice is filed on behalf of the employer or the 
union, and whether this is a health care industry notice is critical 
for reporting and mediation purposes.
    Burden Statement: The current annual burden estimate is 
approximately 14,400 respondents. The annual hour burden is estimated 
at 2,400 hours, approximately 10 minutes for each notice to fill out a 
one-page form.
