*Description:*                     This clearance package seeks approval for a supplemental survey on Unemployment Insurance (UI) Non-Filers to be conducted with the Current Population Survey (CPS), as part of the evaluation of the UI program. The purpose of the UI evaluation is to provide detailed, empirical information on the effectiveness and impact of the UI benefits program. The evaluation will identify changes in the labor market, population and economy pertinent to the UI program; detailed characteristics of who received and does not receive UI benefits; the macro- and micro-economic impacts of the program; and UI's role in preventing dispersal of workers, sacrifice of skills and breakdowns in labor standards. Overall, the evaluation is intended to provide fresh data and analysis that can be used in developing policy and in planning future research, including demonstration projects. As part of the evaluation, this UI non-filer supplement will address how often and why unemployed individuals choose not to apply for unemployment benefits. The first UI non-filer supplement was conducted in late 1989 and early 1990 (OMB Number 1220-0122 Expired 3/31/90), and the second was conducted in 1993 (OMB Number 1220-0122 Expired 1/31/94).                

This supplement, which will take place more than 10 years after the last supplement, will provide the U.S. Department of Labor with the necessary data to evaluate and help improve the UI program.

Departmental Clearance Officer.
