Abstract: The information collection will be used to satisfy the requirements of Section 343(c)(3)(A) of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, 12 U.S.C. 5452, which requires the Director of the Office of Minority and Women Inclusion (OMWI) at the Securities and Exchange Commission (Commission) to determine whether a contractor or subcontractor has made good faith efforts to include minorities and women in its workforce. The Contract Standard on Contractor Workforce Inclusion provides that the contractor shall furnish, upon request from the OMWI Director, documentation of the actions undertaken (and as applicable documentation of the actions its covered subcontractors have undertaken) that demonstrate its good faith efforts to ensure the fair inclusion of minorities and women in its workforce. The respondents are Commission contractors and subcontractors that have contracts and subcontracts for services valued at $100,000 or more.

Burden Reduction Due to: Miscellaneous Actions

Short Statement: This change in eligibility criteria eliminated any new recordkeeping burden since contractors with 50 or more employees are generally subject to the recordkeeping and reporting requirements under the regulations implementing Title VII of the Civil Rights Act and Executive Order 11246. The estimated annualized cost to contractors associated with the recordkeeping and reporting burden resulting from this collection of information is based on Bureau of Labor Statistics data in the publication “Employer Costs for Employee Compensation” (March 2024), which lists total compensation for management, professional, and related occupations as $73 per hour and administrative support as $35 per hour. We estimate that 25 percent of the burden hours for retrieving and submitting documentation to the OMWI Director would be professional, management, and related occupations and 75 percent would be administrative support.
