Short Statement: The DOL has based changes to the burden estimates for Forms WH-514 and WH-514a on information in the agency’s Certificate Processing System (CPS). The CPS data show the actual number of respondents and responses received. The CPS data indicates the DOL estimates for these forms should reflect a reduced burden of 1,260 responses, 105 burden hours, and $70,800 in annual burden costs. Prior DOL estimates for OMB control numbers 1215-0036 and 1215-0037 have not separately stated the burden associated with obtaining the medical examination needed to complete Form WH-515, which represents an increase of 2100 responses, 735 burden hours, and $144,900 in annual burden costs. The net result is an incrase of 840 responses, 630 hours, and $74,100.
