Abstract: This request is for Office of Management and Budget (OMB) renewal of an existing information collection implementing the recordkeeping requirements of Section 503 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended, 29 U.S.C. 793. These requirements apply to both supply and service and construction federal contractors and subcontractors who meet the appropriate thresholds. The agency is proposing changes to the Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability form, in an overall effort to increase the response rate on the form. Specifically, OFCCP proposes revising the list of disabilities to reflect the current preferred language for the specific disabilities and to include additional examples.
