SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: I. 

Background: President Barack Obama 

signed Executive Order 13496 (E.O. 

13496) on January 30, 2009, requiring 

certain Government contractors and 

subcontractors to post notices informing 

their employees of their rights as 

employees under Federal labor laws. 

The Order also provides the text of 

contractual provisions that Federal 

Government contracting departments 

and agencies must include in every 

Government contract, except for 

collective bargaining agreements and 

contracts for purchases under the 

Simplified Acquisition Threshold. 

OLMS administers the enforcement 

provisions of Executive Order 13496, 

while the compliance evaluation and 

investigatory provisions are handled by 

the Department’s Office of Federal 

Contract Compliance Programs 

(OFCCP), pursuant to the Order’s 

implementing regulatory provisions (29 

CFR part 471). Complaints can be filed 

with both agencies. 

II. Review Focus: The Department is 

particularly interested in comments 

which: 

* 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 submissions 

of responses. 

III. Current Actions: The Department 

seeks extension of the current approval 

to collect this information. An extension 

is necessary because if this information 

collection is not conducted, E.O. 13496 

could not be enforced through the 

complaint procedure. 

E.O. 13496 advances the 

Administration’s goal of promoting 

economy and efficiency of Federal 

government procurement by ensuring 

that workers employed in the private 

sector as a result of Federal government 

contracts are informed of their rights to 

engage in union activity and collective 

bargaining. Knowledge of such basic 

statutory rights promotes stable labormanagement relations, thus reducing 

costs to the Federal government. 

The contractual provisions require 

contractors and subcontractors to post a 

notice, created by the Secretary of 

Labor, informing employees of their 

rights under the National Labor 

Relations Act. The notice also provides 

a statement of the policy of the United 

States to encourage collective 

bargaining, as well as a list of activities 

that are illegal under the Act. The notice 

concludes with a general description of 

the remedies to which employees may 

be entitled if these rights have been 

violated and contact information for 

further information about those rights 

and remedies, as well as enforcement 

procedures. 

The clause also requires contractors to 

include the same clause in their 

nonexempt subcontracts and purchase 

orders, and describes generally the 

sanctions, penalties, and remedies that 

may be imposed if the contractor fails to 

satisfy its obligations under the Order 

and the clause. 

The regulatory provisions 

implementing E.O. 13496 (29 CFR part 

471) include the language of the 

required notices, and they explain 

posting and contractual requirements, 

the complaint process, the investigatory 

process, and sanctions, penalties, and 

remedies that may be imposed if the 

contractor or subcontractor fails to 

comply with its obligations under the 

Order. Specifically, 29 CFR part 

471.11(c) sets forth the procedures that 

the Department must use when 

accepting written complaints alleging 

that a contractor doing business with 

the Federal government has failed to 

post the notice required by the 

Executive Order. 

Type of Review: Extension 

Agency: Office of Labor-Management 

Standards 

OMB Number: 1245–0004 

Affected Public: Employees of Federal 

Contractors and Subcontractors 

Total Respondents: 10. 

Total Annual responses: 10. 

Estimated Total Burden Hours: 12.80. 

Estimated Time Per Response: 1.28 

hours. 

Frequency: On occasion of employee 

of a Federal contractor or subcontractor 

filing a complaint alleging a violation of 

proposed 29 CFR part 471. 

Total Burden Cost (capital/startup): 

$5.30 ($0.53 per response × 10 

respondents) 

Total Burden Cost (operating/

maintenance): $0 

Employee Complaints Cost: $323.10 

($32.31 per response × 10 respondents) 

Total Annual Burden Cost: $328.40 

($5.30+ $323.10) 

Total respondent and responses 

estimates are based upon the estimate of 

25 in the previous E.O. 13496 extension 

of information collection. See 78 FR 

12799. In that submission, the 

Department estimated it would receive 

25 employee complaints. However, 

since the Department received only two 

employee complaints since publishing 

the final rule in 2010, the Department 

has lowered its complaint estimate to 

10. 

The Department has not adjusted its 

total employee complaint hour estimate 

of 1.28 hours, which it estimated in the 

E.O. 13496 final rule. 75 FR 28368. 

Based on the average seasonallyadjusted hourly earnings on private 

non-farm payrolls for all workers of 

$25.24, we estimate that an employee 

will incur a cost of approximately 

$32.31 for the 1.28 hours involved 

($25.24 × 1.28) in preparing a 

complaint. The total hourly cost for all 

employees is therefore $323.10. 

Additionally, employees will incur 

costs of $0.53 per complaint in capital/ 

start-up costs ($0.49 for postage + $0.03 

for an envelope + $0.01 for paper) for a 

total cost of $5.30. The total cost for the 

estimated 10 complaints is therefore 

$328.40 ($323.10 + $5.30). There are no 

ongoing operation/maintenance costs 

associated with this information 

collection. 

Comments submitted in response to 

this notice will be summarized and/or 

included in the request for Office of 

Management and Budget approval of the 

information collection request; they will 

also become a matter of public record.
