Department of Labor May 29, 2008 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

The Department of Labor, as part of its continuing effort to reduce paperwork and respondent burden, conducts a preclearance consultation program to provide the general public and Federal agencies with an opportunity to comment on proposed and/or continuing collections of information in accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA95) [44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)]. This program helps to ensure that requested data can be provided in the desired format, reporting burden (time and financial resources) is minimized, collection instruments are clearly understood, and the impact of collection requirements on respondents can be properly assessed. Currently, the Employment Standards Administration is soliciting comments concerning the proposal to extend OMB approval of the information collection issued OMB Control Number 1215-0032 (Application for Authority to Employ Full-Time Students at Subminimum Wages in Retail/Service Establishments or Agriculture) and to combine it with the information collection controlled under number 1215-0080 (Application for Authority for an Institution of Higher Education to Employ Its Full-Time Students at Subminimum Wages Under Regulations 29 CFR Part 519). The title of the revised information collection will be: Applications to Employ Full-time Students at Subminimum Wages in Retail or Service Establishments, Agriculture, and Institutions of Higher Education (WH-200, WH-201, WH-202). A copy of the revised information collection request can be obtained by contacting the office listed below in the addresses section of this Notice.
