Proposed Renewal of the Approval of
Information Collection Requirements;
Comment Request
ACTION:
Notice.
The Department of Labor
(DOL), 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
(PRA). 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. Currently, the
Office of Federal Contract Compliance
Programs (OFCCP) is soliciting
comments concerning its proposal to
renew the Office of Management and
Budget (OMB) approval of the following
information collections: ‘‘Vietnam Era
Veterans’ Readjustment Assistance Act,
as Amended’’ (OMB Control No. 1250–
0004) and ‘‘Section 503 of the
Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as
Amended’’ (OMB Control No. 1250–
0005). The current OMB approval for
these information collections expires on
January 31, 2020. A copy of the

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background: OFCCP administers
and enforces Executive Order 11246,
section 503 of the Rehabilitation Act
(section 503), and the Vietnam Era
Veterans’ Readjustment Assistance Act
(VEVRAA), and their implementing
regulations. Collectively, these laws
require federal contractors to take
affirmative action and not discriminate
on the basis of race, color, religion, sex,
sexual orientation, gender identity,
national origin, disability, or status as a
VerDate Sep<11>2014

protected veteran. Additionally,
Executive Order 11246 prohibits a
contractor from discharging or
otherwise discriminating against
applicants or employees who inquire
about, discuss or disclose their
compensation or that of others, subject
to certain limitations.
This information collection request
covers the recordkeeping and third
party disclosure requirements for
Section 503 and VEVRAA. OFCCP is not
proposing to collect new information
with this renewal.
Section 503 prohibits employment
discrimination against applicants and
employees because of physical or
mental disability and requires
affirmative action to ensure that persons
are treated without regard to disability.
Section 503 applies to Federal
contractors and subcontractors with
contracts in excess of $15,000.1
VEVRAA prohibits employment
discrimination against protected
veterans and requires affirmative action
to ensure that persons are treated
without regard to their status as a
protected veteran. VEVRAA applies to
Federal contractors and subcontractors
with contracts of $150,000 or more.2
II. Review Focus: DOL is particularly
interested in comments which:
• Evaluate the proposed changes to
the Voluntary Self-Identification of
Disability, including specific
suggestions for updating the form and
for matching applicants with forms for
affirmative action purposes using a
method other than name;
• 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; 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

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This ICR
seeks approval under the PRA (44
U.S.C. 3501 et seq.) for the extension to
CW–1 Application for Temporary
Employment Certification, which is
currently set to expire on September 30,
2019, and all applicable forms,
instructions, and electronic versions
(OMB Control Number 1205–0534). The
Department collects information
through Form ETA–9142C, Application
for Temporary Employment
Certification and appendices, and Form
ETA–9141C, Application for Prevailing
Wage Determination, to carry out the
responsibilities created for the
Department under the Northern Mariana
Islands U.S. Workforce Act of 2018
(Pub. L. 115–218) (Workforce Act).
The Workforce Act provides that a
petition to employ a nonimmigrant
worker under the CW–1 visa
classification may not be approved by
the U.S. Department of Homeland
Security unless the employer has
received a temporary labor certification
from DOL confirming the following: (1)
There are not sufficient U.S. workers in
the Commonwealth of the Northern
Mariana Islands who are able, willing,
qualified, and available at the time and
place needed to perform the services or
labor involved in the petition; and (2)
the employment of a nonimmigrant
worker who is the subject of a petition
will not adversely affect the wages and
working conditions of similarly
employed U.S. workers. 48 U.S.C.
1806(d)(2)(A).
The ICR was originally submitted
under the emergency processing
provisions outlined at 5 CFR 1320.13,
and the Department requested the
maximum six-month approval. Because
this ICR relates to an Interim Final Rule
(IFR) that the Workforce Act required to
be promulgated on an expedited basis,
there was no opportunity to engage in
normal clearance activities. Public harm
would have resulted by a failure timely
to enact the information collection,
because employers and jobseekers
would not have had the protections
afforded by the Workforce Act.
In accordance with the PRA, the
Department afforded the public notice
and an opportunity to comment on
these new information collection tools
that are related to the CW–1 program
PO 00000
Frm 00032
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703

and that are necessary to implement the
requirements of the IFR. The
information collection activities covered
by this new OMB Control Number
1205–0534 include forms and
recordkeeping requirements on which
the Department relies for determining
prevailing wages and issuing temporary
labor certifications (TLCs) in connection
with the CW–1 program. Additionally,
these information collection tools
permit employers to assure compliance
with respect to the minimum terms and
conditions associated with the
Prevailing Wage Determinations and
TLC processes, which include the rights
and obligations of CW–1 workers and
workers in corresponding employment,
in addition to information regarding
recordkeeping requirements associated
with the CW–1 program. Specifically,
ETA has created new Form ETA–9141C,
Application for Prevailing Wage
Determination, and new Form ETA–
9142C, CW–1 Application for
Temporary Employment Certification.
This information collection is subject
to the PRA. A Federal agency generally
cannot conduct or sponsor a collection
of information, and the public generally
is not required to respond to an
information collection, unless it is
approved by the OMB under the PRA
and displays a currently valid OMB
Control Number. In addition,
notwithstanding any 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. 5 CFR
1320.6. The Department obtained OMB
approval for this information collection
under Control Number 1205–0534. The
current approval is scheduled to expire
on September 30, 2019; however, DOL
notes that remaining information
collection requirements submitted to the
OMB receive a month-to-month
extension while they undergo review.
Interested parties are encouraged to
send comments to the OMB, Office of
Information and Regulatory Affairs, at
the address shown in the ADDRESSES
section within thirty (30) days of the
publication of this notice in the Federal
Register by November 4, 2019. To help
ensure appropriate consideration,
comments should mention OMB Control
Number 1205–0534. OMB 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,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background: OFCCP administers and enforces Executive Order
11246, section 503 of the Rehabilitation Act (section 503), and the
Vietnam Era Veterans' Readjustment Assistance Act (VEVRAA), and their
implementing regulations. Collectively, these laws require federal
contractors to take affirmative action and not discriminate on the
basis of race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender
identity, national origin, disability, or status as a protected
veteran. Additionally, Executive Order 11246 prohibits a contractor
from discharging or otherwise discriminating against applicants or
employees who inquire about, discuss or disclose their compensation or
that of others, subject to certain limitations.
This information collection request covers the recordkeeping and
third party disclosure requirements for Section 503 and VEVRAA. OFCCP
is not proposing to collect new information with this renewal.
Section 503 prohibits employment discrimination against applicants
and employees because of physical or mental disability and requires
affirmative action to ensure that persons are treated without regard to
disability. Section 503 applies to Federal contractors and
subcontractors with contracts in excess of $15,000.\1\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\1\ Effective October 1, 2010, the coverage threshold under
Section 503 increased from $10,000 to $15,000, in accordance with
the inflationary adjustment requirements in 41 U.S.C. 1908.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
VEVRAA prohibits employment discrimination against protected
veterans and requires affirmative action to ensure that persons are
treated without regard to their status as a protected veteran. VEVRAA
applies to Federal contractors and subcontractors with contracts of
$150,000 or more.\2\

\2\ Effective October 1, 2015, the coverage threshold under
VEVRAA increased from $100,000 to $150,000, in accordance with the
inflationary adjustment requirements in 41 U.S.C. 1908.

II. Review Focus: DOL is particularly interested in comments which:
Evaluate the proposed changes to the Voluntary Self-
Identification of Disability, including specific suggestions for
updating the form and for matching applicants with forms for
affirmative action purposes using a method other than name;
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; and
