Abstract: The U.S. Department of Labor’s (DOL) Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) is requesting Office of Management and Budget (OMB) review and approval of the Monthly Employment Utilization Report (CC-257). The proposed CC-257 would require covered construction contractors and subcontractors to submit monthly reports on their employee count and work hours by race/ethnicity, gender, and trade in the covered area. OFCCP previously collected the CC-257 under OMB control number 1215-0163 but discontinued the report in 1995. Since that time, DOL restructured OFCCP as a stand-alone agency and OMB transferred OFCCP’s information collections to OMB control numbers that begin with a “1250” agency code. As such, OFCCP is requesting a new “1250” OMB control number for the CC-257 report. This information collection request (ICR) outlines the legal authority, procedures, burden, and costs associated with the collection.
