WHD staff use Form WH-3 as a guide for
obtaining information complainants (e.g., current and former
employees, unions, and competitor employers) voluntarily provide
about alleged violations of agency-administered labor standards.
Complainants generally provide the information requested on the
form to WHD staff over the telephone or in person. WHD staff use
the information to determine whether the agency has jurisdiction to
investigate the alleged violation(s). When the WHD schedules a
complaint-based investigation, the agency makes the completed Form
WH-3 part of the investigation case file. Where the information
provided does not support a potential WHD enforcement action,
complainants are advised and referred to the appropriate agency for
further assistance.

This ICR is being submitted in
coordination with a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM): Defining
and Delimiting the Exemptions for Executive, Administrative,
Professional, Outside Sales, and Computer Employees. The proposed
changes would likely make more workers eligible for minimum wage
and overtime protection and thus increase the number of complaints
received by the Department. The agency has made a change to the
estimated number of complaints.
