can be obtained by contacting the

DATES: Written comments must be

Addresses section of this notice on or
before March 30, 2021.
ADDRESSES: Send comments to Erin
Good, BLS Clearance Officer, Division
of Management Systems, Bureau of
Labor Statistics, Room 4080, 2
Massachusetts Avenue NE, Washington,
DC 20212. Written comments also may
be transmitted by email to BLS_PRA_
Public@bls.gov.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Erin
Good, BLS Clearance Officer, at 202–
691–7763 (this is not a toll free number).
(See ADDRESSES section.)
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
The CPS has been the principal
source of official Government statistics
on employment and unemployment
since 1940 (75 years). Collection of labor
force data through the CPS is necessary
to meet the requirements in Title 29,
United States Code, Sections 1 and 2.
The Veterans Supplement provides
information on the labor force status of
veterans with a service-connected
disability, combat veterans, past or
present National Guard and Reserve
members, and recently discharged
veterans. Also, Afghanistan, Iraq, and
Vietnam veterans are identified by
location of service. Data are provided by
period of service and a range of
demographic characteristics. The
supplement also provides information
on veterans’ participation in various
transition and employment and training
programs. The data collected through
this supplement will be used by the U.S.
Department of Labor’s Veterans
Employment and Training Service
(VETS) and the U.S. Department of
Veterans Affairs (VA) to determine
policies that better meet the needs of
our Nation’s veteran population.
In order to make the information for
the supplement more relevant, twentyfour questions are proposed for addition
starting with the 2021 Veterans
Supplement. New questions include
items about veterans’ transition from
Active Duty to civilian employment,
details about working with serviceconnected disabilities, awareness of VA
benefits, and work duties while in the
Armed forces. In addition, many
questions were revised; most of these
changes were made to streamline or
clarify language or to update questions
to use more current terms. Finally, ten
VerDate Sep<11>2014

questions are proposed for elimination;
these little-used questions include
detailed questions about veterans’
experiences with Transition Assistance
Program workshops, strategies for
obtaining employment (networking,
etc.), and whether veterans receive a
monthly check from the VA for a
service-connected disability. The
revised questionnaire underwent
cognitive testing and expert review.
II. Current Action
Office of Management and Budget
clearance is being sought for the
Veterans Supplement to the CPS.
A revision of a currently approved
collection is needed to continue to
provide the Nation with timely
information about the labor force status
of veterans with a service-connected
disability, combat veterans, past or
present National Guard and Reserve
members, recently discharged veterans,
and veterans who have served in
Afghanistan, Iraq, or Vietnam. In
addition, the Veterans Supplement will
provide information to assist VA and
VETS to develop programs and policies
that smooth veterans’ transition into
civilian employment, including for
veterans with service-connected
disabilities.
III. Desired Focus of Comments
The Bureau of Labor Statistics 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,
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used.
• Enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected.
• 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
other forms of information technology,
e.g., permitting electronic submissions
of responses.
