January 28, 2022 (87 FR 4667), which
PBGC withdraws.
Under Executive Order 14043, every
Federal agency must ‘‘implement, to the
extent consistent with applicable law, a
program to require COVID–19
vaccination for all of its Federal
employees, with exceptions only as
required by law.’’ In following this
directive, the Pension Benefit Guaranty
Corporation (PBGC) imposed a
requirement that its employees must
receive and submit proof of a COVID–
19 vaccination. As required by 29 U.S.C.
701 et seq. and 29 CFR part 1630, PBGC
allows an exception from the
vaccination requirement for employees
who demonstrate medical reasons or
disabilities that would make the
COVID–19 vaccine unsafe for them. To
obtain this exception, employees must
complete the Request for Medical
Exception to COVID–19 Vaccination
Requirement form. PBGC uses the
information on this form to verify
employees’ assertions that they are
entitled to an exception to the COVID–
19 vaccination requirement because of
their medical or disability statuses.
The medical exception request
collection of information has been
approved by OMB under control
number 1212–0075 (expires May 31,
2022). PBGC intends to request that
OMB extend its approval for 3 years. An
agency may not conduct or sponsor, and
a person is not required to respond to,
a collection of information unless it
displays a currently valid OMB control
number.
PBGC estimates that an average of 2
employees each year will submit
Request for Medical Exception to
COVID–19 Vaccination Requirement
forms. The total estimated annual
burden of the collection of information
is 0.5 hours and $0.
PBGC is soliciting public comments
to—
• 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
methodologies 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
PO 00000

other forms of information technology,
e.g., permitting electronic submission of
responses.
A Notice Regarding Injunctions
The vaccination requirement issued
pursuant to E.O. 14043 is currently the
subject of a nationwide injunction.
While that injunction remains in place,
PBGC will not process requests for a
medical exception from the COVID–19
vaccination requirement pursuant to
E.O. 14043. PBGC will also not request
the submission of any medical
information related to a request for an
exception from the vaccination
requirement pursuant to E.O. 14043
while the injunction remains in place.
But PBGC may nevertheless receive
information regarding a medical
exception. That is because, if PBGC
were to receive a request for an
exception from the COVID–19
vaccination requirement pursuant to
E.O. 14043 during the pendency of the
injunction, PBGC will accept the
request, hold it in abeyance, and notify
the employee who submitted the request
that implementation and enforcement of
the COVID–19 vaccination requirement
pursuant to E.O. 14043 is currently
enjoined and that an exception therefore
is not necessary so long as the
injunction is in place. In other words,
during the pendency of the injunction,
any information collection related to
requests for medical exception from the
COVID–19 vaccination requirement
pursuant to E.O. 14043 is not
undertaken to implement or enforce the
COVID–19 vaccination requirement.
Issued in Washington, DC.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This notice replaces the notice published on
January 28, 2022 (87 FR 4667), which PBGC withdraws.
Under Executive Order 14043, every Federal agency must ``implement,

PBGC intends to request that OMB extend its approval for 3 years. An
agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to

PBGC estimates that an average of 2 employees each year will submit
Request for Medical Exception to COVID-19 Vaccination Requirement

information is 0.5 hours and $0.
PBGC is soliciting public comments to--

Evaluate the accuracy of the agency's estimate of the

A Notice Regarding Injunctions
The vaccination requirement issued pursuant to E.O. 14043 is
currently the subject of a nationwide injunction. While that injunction
remains in place, PBGC will not process requests for a medical
exception from the COVID-19 vaccination requirement pursuant to E.O.
14043. PBGC will also not request the submission of any medical
information related to a request for an exception from the vaccination
requirement pursuant to E.O. 14043 while the injunction remains in
place. But PBGC may nevertheless receive information regarding a
medical exception. That is because, if PBGC were to receive a request
for an exception from the COVID-19 vaccination requirement pursuant to
E.O. 14043 during the pendency of the injunction, PBGC will accept the
request, hold it in abeyance, and notify the employee who submitted the
request that implementation and enforcement of the COVID-19 vaccination
requirement pursuant to E.O. 14043 is currently enjoined and that an
exception therefore is not necessary so long as the injunction is in
place. In other words, during the pendency of the injunction, any
information collection related to requests for medical exception from
the COVID-19 vaccination requirement pursuant to E.O. 14043 is not
undertaken to implement or enforce the COVID-19 vaccination
requirement.
