DEPARTMENT OF LABOR 

Bureau of Labor Statistics 

Proposed Collection; Comment 

Request 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: The Department of Labor, as 

part of its continuing effort to reduce 

paperwork and respondent burden, 

conducts a pre-clearance 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 Bureau 

of Labor Statistics (BLS) is soliciting 

comments concerning the proposed 

reinstatement of the ‘‘Current 

Population Survey (CPS) Displaced 

Worker, Job Tenure, and Occupational 

Mobility Supplement’’ to be conducted 

in January 2008. A copy of the proposed 

information collection request (ICR) can 

be obtained by contacting the individual 

listed below in the ADDRESSES section of 

this notice. 

DATES: Written comments must be 

submitted to the office listed in the 

ADDRESSES section of this notice on or 

before August 6, 2007. 

ADDRESSES: Send comments to Amy A. 

Hobby, BLS Clearance Officer, Division 

of Management Systems, Bureau of 

Labor Statistics, Room 4080, 2 

Massachusetts Avenue, NE., 

Washington, DC 20212, 202–691–7628.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Background 

The CPS Displaced Worker, Job 

Tenure, and Occupational Mobility 

supplement is conducted biennially and 

was last collected in January 2006. 

This supplement will gather 

information on workers who have lost 

or left their jobs because their plant or 

company closed or moved, there was 

insufficient work for them to do, or their 

position or shift was abolished. Data 

will be collected on the extent to which 

displaced workers received advance 

notice of job cutbacks or the closing of 

their plant or business. For those 

workers who have been reemployed, the 

supplement will gather data on the 

types of jobs they found and will 

compare current earnings with those 

from the lost job. 

The incidence and nature of 

occupational changes in the preceding 

year will be queried. The survey also 

probes for the length of time workers 

(including those who have not been 

displaced) have been with their current 

employer. Additional data to be 

collected include information on the 

receipt of unemployment compensation, 

the loss of health insurance coverage, 

and the length of time spent without a 

job. 

Because this supplement is part of the 

CPS, the same detailed demographic 

information collected in the CPS will be 

available on respondents to the 

supplement. Comparisons will be 

possible across characteristics such as 

sex, race, age, and educational 

attainment of the respondent. 

The information collected by this 

survey will be used to determine the 

size and nature of the population 

affected by job displacements and the 

needs and scope of programs serving 

adult displaced workers. It also will be 

used to assess employment stability by 

determining the length of time workers 

have been with their current employer 

and estimating the incidence of 

occupational change over the course of 

a year. Combining the questions on 

displacement, job tenure, and 

occupational mobility will enable 

analysts to obtain a more complete 

picture of employment stability. 

II. Current Action 

Office of Management and Budget 

clearance is being sought for the CPS 

Displaced Worker, Job Tenure, and 

Occupational Mobility Supplement to 

the CPS. 

III. Desired Focus of Comments 

The Bureau of Labor Statistics 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. 

• 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 submissions 

of responses.

without change, of a previously 

approved collection for which approval 

has expired.
