Feedback will provide insights into customer or stakeholder perceptions, experiences and expectations, provide an early warning of issues interest, or focus attention on areas where communication, training, or changes in operations or policy might improve delivery of products, services, or Federal policy. Information collected will also allow feedback to contribute directly to the improvement of program management and performance.
These information collections will be designed to support the DOL mission and function. They will cover a wide range of agency responsibilities including, for example, pension programs, occupational safety and health programs, mine safety and health programs, veterans' programs, employment and training programs, statistical programs, and labor management standards.
