Kathleen Oram, Acting Assistant Legal
Counsel, Office of Legal Counsel, Equal
Employment Opportunity Commission,
131 M Street NE, Washington, DC
20507, (202) 663–4681 (voice) or (202)
663–4494 (TTY), or Erin Norris, Senior
Attorney, Office of Legal Counsel, Equal
Employment Opportunity Commission,
129 W Trade Street, Charlotte, NC
28202, (704) 954–6491 (voice). Requests
for this notice in an alternative format
should be made to the Office of
Communications and Legislative Affairs
at (202) 663–4191 (voice) or (202) 663–
4494 (TTY).
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Equal
Employment Opportunity Commission
(EEOC) enforces Title VII of the Civil
Rights Act of 1964 (Title VII), Title I of
the Americans with Disabilities Act
(ADA), and Title II of the Genetic
Information Nondiscrimination Act of
2008 (GINA), which collectively
prohibit discrimination on the basis of
race, color, religion, sex, national origin,
disability, or genetic information.
Section 709(c) of Title VII, section
107(a) of the ADA, and section 207(a) of
GINA authorize the EEOC to issue
recordkeeping and reporting regulations
that are deemed reasonable, necessary
or appropriate. EEOC has promulgated
recordkeeping regulations under those
authorities that are contained in 29 CFR
part 1602 et seq. Those regulations do
not require the creation of any particular
records but generally require employers
to preserve any personnel and
employment records they make or keep
for a period of one year. The EEOC seeks
extension of the recordkeeping
requirement in these regulations
without change.
Pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction
Act of 1995, and OMB regulation 5 CFR
1320.8(d)(1), the Commission solicits
public comment to enable it to:
(1) Evaluate whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary
for the proper performance of the
Commission’s functions, including
whether the information will have
practical utility;
(2) Evaluate the accuracy of the
Commission’s estimate of the burden of
the proposed collection of information,
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;
(3) Enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and
(4) Minimize the burden of the
collection of information on those who
are to respond, including the use of
appropriate, or other technological
collection techniques or other forms of
information technology, e.g., permitting
electronic submission of responses.

Overview of Current Information
Collection
Collection Title: Recordkeeping under
Title VII, the ADA, and GINA.
OMB Number: 3046–0040.
Description of Affected Public:
Employers with 15 or more employees
are subject to Title VII, the ADA, and
GINA.
Number of Respondents: 961,709.
Number of Reports Submitted: 0.
Estimated Burden Hours: 37,264
hours.
Cost to Respondents: $0.
Federal Cost: None.
Number of Forms: None.
Abstract: Section 709(c) of Title VII of
the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as
amended, 42 U.S.C. 2000e–8(c), section
1007(a) of the ADA, 42 U.S.C. 12117(a),
and section 207(a) of GINA, 42 U.S.C.
2000ff–6(a), require the Commission to
establish regulations pursuant to which
employers subject to those Acts shall
make and preserve certain records to
assist the EEOC in assuring compliance
with the Acts’ nondiscrimination in
employment requirements. This is a
recordkeeping requirement. Any of the
records maintained which are
subsequently disclosed to the EEOC
during an investigation are protected
from public disclosure by the
confidentiality provisions of section
706(b) and 709(e) of Title VII which are
also incorporated by reference into the
ADA at section 107(a) and GINA at
section 207(a).
Burden Statement: The estimated
number of respondents subject to this
recordkeeping requirement is 961,709
employers. An employer subject to the
recordkeeping requirement in 29 CFR
part 1602 must retain all personnel or
employment records made or kept by
that employer for one year, and must
retain any records relevant to charges of
discrimination filed under Title VII, the
ADA, or GINA until final disposition of
those matters, which may be longer than
one year. This recordkeeping
requirement does not require reports or
the creation of new documents, but
merely requires retention of documents
that an employer has already made or
kept in the normal course of its business
operations. Thus, existing employers
bear no burden under this analysis,
because their systems for retaining
personnel and employment records are
already in place. Newly formed firms
may incur a small burden when setting
up their data collection and retention
systems to ensure compliance with
EEOC’s recordkeeping requirements. We
assume some effort and time must be
expended by employers to familiarize
themselves with the Title VII, ADA, and

PO 00000

GINA recordkeeping requirements and
explain those requirements to the
appropriate staff. We estimate that 30
minutes would be needed for this onetime familiarization process. Using 2015
data from the Small Business
Administration, we estimate that there
are 74,528 firms that would incur this
start-up burden.1 Assuming a 30-minute
burden per firm, the total annual hour
burden is 37,264 hours (.5 hour × 74,528
= 37,264).
For the Commission.

Overview of the Information Collection
Request
1. Title: Recordkeeping, Disclosure
and Reporting Requirements in
Connection with Regulation Z.
OMB Number: 3064–0082.
Form Number: None.
Affected Public: State nonmember
banks and state savings associations.
General Description of Collection:
Consumer Financial Protection Bureau
(CFPB) Regulation Z—12 CFR 1026
implements the Truth in Lending Act
(15 U.S.C. 1601, et seq.) and certain
provisions of the Real Estate Settlement
Procedures Act (12 U.S.C. 2601 et seq.).
This regulation prescribes uniform
methods for computing the cost of
credit, the disclosure of credit terms and
costs, the resolution of errors and
imposes various other recordkeeping,
reporting and disclosure requirements.
The FDIC has enforcement authority on
the requirements of the CFPB’s

Regulation over the financial
institutions it supervises. This
information collection captures the
recordkeeping, reporting and disclosure
burdens of Regulation Z on FDICsupervised institutions. The information
collection is being revised to account for
revisions and changes made to
Regulation Z by the CFPB since this
information collection was last
submitted by the FDIC to OMB for
clearance.
To arrive at the estimated annual
burden the FDIC assessed the number of
potential respondents to the information
collection by identifying the number of
FDIC-supervised institutions who
reported activity that would be within
the scope of the information collection
requirements according to data from the
most recent CALL Report. Additionally,
the FDIC estimated the frequency of
responses to the recordkeeping,
reporting, or disclosure requirements by
assessing the dollar volume of activity
that would be within the scope of the
information collection. In some
instances the FDIC used information
provided by other sources to estimate
the magnitude and scope of activity
attributable to FDIC-supervised
institutions when more immediate
information sources did not exist.
Burden Estimate: The total estimated
annual burden is 2,395,630 hours (36
hours estimated implementation
burden, plus 2,395,594 hours estimated
ongoing burden). The burden estimate is
detailed on the following tables:
