SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: DOL, in
its continuing efforts to reduce
paperwork and respondent burden,
conducts a pre-clearance consultation
program to provide the general public
and Federal agencies an opportunity to
comment on proposed and/or
continuing collections of information
before submitting them to the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) for final
approval. This program ensures the
public provides all necessary data in the
desired format, the reporting burden
(time and financial resources) is
minimized, collection instruments are
clearly understood, and the impact of
collection requirements can be properly
assessed.
This information collection is
required under sections 212(n) and (t)
and 214(c) of the Immigration and
Nationality Act (INA). See 8 U.S.C.
1182(n) and (t), and 1184(c). DOL and
the Department of Homeland Security
have promulgated regulations to
implement the INA’s requirements at 20
CFR part 655, subparts H and I, and 8
CFR 214.2(h)(4), respectively. The INA
mandates that no H–1B, H–1B1 or E–3
temporary nonimmigrant worker may
enter the United States (U.S.) to perform
work in a specialty occupation or as a
fashion model of distinguished merit
and ability unless the U.S. employer
makes certain attestations to the
Secretary of Labor (Secretary). The
employer must attest that the working
conditions for the nonimmigrant worker
will not adversely affect the working
conditions of workers similarly
employed; that it will offer a wage that
is at least the higher of the prevailing
wage for the occupational classification
in the area of employment or the actual
wage paid to all other individuals with
similar experience and qualifications for
the specific employment in question;
that there is no strike or lockout in the
course of a labor dispute in the
occupational classification at the place
of employment; and that it has provided
notice of the filing of the LCA. See 20
CFR 655.731, 655.732, 655.733, and
655.734. In addition, further attestations
are generally required for H–1B
dependent employers and willful
violators. See 20 CFR 655.736, 655.738,
and 655.739. The current ICR expires
December 31, 2024. DOL seeks to
extend, without changes, the validity of

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 OMB,
under the PRA, approves it and the
collection tool 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.
Interested parties are encouraged to
provide comments regarding this ICR to
the contact shown in the ADDRESSES
section. Comments must be written to
receive consideration, and they will be
summarized and included in the request
for OMB approval of the final ICR. To
help ensure appropriate consideration,
comments should mention OMB control
number 1205–0310.
Submitted comments will also be a
matter of public record for this ICR and
posted on the internet, without
redaction. DOL encourages commenters
not to include personally identifiable
information, confidential business data,
or other sensitive statements/
information in any comments.
DOL 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; 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
other forms of information technology
(e.g., permitting electronic submission
of responses).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
The Department of Labor, as part of
the continuing effort to reduce
paperwork and respondent (i.e.,
employer) burden, conducts a
preclearance consultation program to
provide the public with an opportunity
to comment on proposed and
continuing information collection
requirements in accordance with the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA)
(44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)). This program
ensures that information is in the
desired format, reporting burden (time
and costs) is minimal, the collection
instruments are clearly understood, and
OSHA’s estimate of the information
collection burden is accurate. The
Occupational Safety and Health Act of
1970 (OSH Act) (29 U.S.C. 651 et seq.)
authorizes information collection by
employers as necessary or appropriate
for enforcement of the OSH Act or for
developing information regarding the
causes and prevention of occupational
injuries, illnesses, and accidents (29
U.S.C. 657). The OSH Act also requires
that OSHA obtain such information
with minimum burden upon employers,
especially those operating small
businesses, and to reduce to the
maximum extent feasible unnecessary
duplication of effort in obtaining
information (29 U.S.C. 657).
