SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
QCEW program is implementing
improvements to the methods used to
impute data for missing employer
reports starting in October 2020. The
current method of imputation estimates
the current month’s employment or
current quarterly wages by applying the
change from a year earlier to the
previous month’s reported employment
and/or quarterly wages. A drawback to
this procedure is that it uses the data
from a year earlier, which may not
reflect current economic conditions.
BLS anticipates that the number of
nonresponding employers will be
substantially higher than usual in the
second quarter of 2020, as a result of the
business response to the coronavirus
(COVID–19) pandemic. Existing
imputation methods would likely
understate the impact of the pandemic
on the U.S. economy. BLS has
conducted research on improvements to
its imputation methodology and will
implement these improvements with the
first release of data for the second
quarter of 2020. The QCEW program is
the only Federal statistical program that
provides information on establishments,
wages, tax contributions and the
number of employees subject to State UI

laws and the Unemployment
Compensation for the Federal
Employees program. The consequences
of not collecting QCEW data would be
grave to the Federal statistical
community. The BLS would not have a
sampling frame for its establishment
surveys; it would not be able to publish
as accurate current estimates of
employment for the U.S., States, and
metropolitan areas; and it would not be
able to publish quarterly census totals of
local establishment counts,
employment, and wages. The Bureau of
Economic Analysis would not be able to
publish as accurate personal income
data in a timely manner for the U.S.,
States, and local areas. Finally, the
Department of Labor’s Employment
Training Administration would not
have the information it needs to
administer the Unemployment
Insurance Program.
For additional substantive
information about this ICR, see the
related notice published in the Federal
Register on October 9, 2020 (85 FR
64167).
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
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 OMB Control Number.
See 5 CFR 1320.5(a) and 1320.6.
DOL seeks PRA authorization for this
information collection for three (3)
years. OMB authorization for an ICR
cannot be for more than three (3) years
without renewal. The DOL notes that
information collection requirements
submitted to the OMB for existing ICRs
receive a month-to-month extension
while they undergo review.
