SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This ICR
seeks to extend PRA authority for the
OFCCP Recordkeeping Requirements—
29 U.S.C. 793, Section 503 of the
Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as Amended
information collection. 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
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.1
This information collection is subject
to the PRA. A Federal agency generally
cannot conduct or sponsor a collection
of information, and the public is
generally not required to respond to an
information collection, unless the OMB
under the PRA approves it and displays
1 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.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This ICR
seeks approval under the PRA for
revisions to the Title 29 CFR part 29—
Labor Standards for the Registration of
Apprenticeship Program. Title 29 CFR
29 sets forth labor standards to
safeguard the welfare of apprentices and
to extend the application of such
standards by prescribing policies and
procedures concerning registration of
apprenticeship. This information
collection, ETA 671, has two sections:
The first records the sponsor’s
information and the second is for the
apprentice’s information, filled out by
the sponsor based on employment
records. The submission is reviewed
and signed by the state agency/Office of
Apprenticeship. The information is
collected on a one-time basis. This
information collection is a revision,
because the annual burden for this
information collection increased from
22,158 hours to 32,399, which OMB
approved until January 31, 2020. The
burden hours have increased due to an
increase in the total number of
responses (i.e., apprentice and program
counts). The number of responses has
increased by 221,210 (from 239,720 to
451,930).
This information collection is subject
to the PRA. A Federal agency generally
cannot conduct or sponsor a collection
of information, and the public is
generally not required to respond to an
information collection, unless the OMB,
under the PRA, approves it 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. See 5 CFR
1320.5(a) and 1320.6. The DOL obtains
OMB approval for this information
collection under Control Number 1205–
0223. The current approval is scheduled
to expire on January 31, 2020; however,

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.\1\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\1\ 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.
