Burden Reduction Due to:

Short Statement: Changes and adjustments in the current request is as follows: Record keeping: The previous submission in 2011 included 1,324,660 hours for record keeping and disclosures to subcontractors. The current request is for 618,719 hours. This decrease of 705,941 hours in the burden is due to a decrease in the number of covered contractors in the universe. Specifically, OFCCP estimates that its universe decreased by 23,267 Federal construction contractor respondents. Reporting: The previous submission in 2011 included 1,660 hours for reporting. The current request is for 132,577 hours, an increase of 130,917 hours. This increase is related to OFCCP revising its calculation related to the burden hours associated with contractors complying with the notification of subcontract awards found at 41 CFR 60-4.2(c). Third Party Disclosure: The previous submission in 2011 included no hours for third party disclosures to employees. The current request is for 52,429 hours. This increase of 52,429 hours is due to recognition that the third party disclosure is not the same notification as found in 41 CFR 60-4.3(a)7.f. Operations and Maintenance Costs Burdens: The last submission did not include mailing costs that the agency now recognizes. This adjustment in the estimate reflects an $83,131 increase.
