modified. This process is ongoing and
the Department’s guidance website
collects decisions to retain guidance to
date. The website is intended to provide
transparency to the regulated
community by creating a ‘‘one-stop
shop’’ for locating guidance documents,
which will also continue to be available
on agency websites in their usual
locations. The E.O. gives agencies until
June 27, 2020, to add to the website any
guidance missed during their initial
review. Any documents still under
review after February 28, 2020 will be
added to the website when those
decisions have been finalized.
Guidance documents that are not
currently searchable through the search
tool will continue to be available on the
individual DOL agency websites. DOL
will continue to refine its website as
needed to enhance user accessibility
and usability.
Agencies will continue to publish
guidance documents on their own
websites and all new guidance
documents will be searchable from
https://www.dol.gov/guidance. DOL
welcomes input from the public
regarding guidance that should be
retained, rescinded, or modified.
Comments should be submitted to
