SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On July 26, 2010, President Obama issued 
Executive Order 13548, which directs Executive departments and agencies 
(hereafter ``agencies'') to improve their efforts to employ Federal 
workers with disabilities through increased recruitment, hiring, and 
retention of these individuals. OPM, in consultation with the White 
House (including the Office of Management and Budget (OMB), the 
Department of Labor (DOL), and the EEOC has developed, as required by 
the E.O. 13548, model recruitment and hiring strategies for agencies to 
use to increase their employment of individuals with disabilities. The 
strategies include collecting, maintaining, and analyzing applicant 
flow data and examining existing recruitment programs and hiring 
practices to identify and eliminate any barriers to recruiting/hiring 
individuals with disabilities and, in particular, individuals with 
targeted disabilities. The EEOC's Demographic

[[Page 72586]]

Information on Federal Job Applicants form (OMB No. 3046-0046) is 
intended for use by federal agencies in gathering data on the race, 
ethnicity, sex, and disability status of job applicants. This form is 
used by the EEOC and other agencies to gauge progress and trends over 
time with respect to equal employment opportunity goals.
    Pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, 44 U.S.C. Chapter 
35, and OMB regulation 5 CFR 1320.8(d)(1), the Commission solicits 
public comment to enable it to:
    (1) Evaluate whether the proposed data collection tool will have 
practical utility by enabling a federal agency to determine whether 
recruitment activities are effectively reaching all segments of the 
relevant labor pool in compliance with the laws enforced by the 
Commission and whether the agency's selection procedures allow all 
applicants to compete on a level playing field regardless of race, 
national origin, sex or disability status;
    (2) Evaluate the accuracy of the agency'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 
applicants for federal employees who choose to respond, including 
through the use of appropriate automated, electronic, mechanical, or 
other technological collection techniques or other forms of information 
technology, e.g., permitting electronic submission of responses.

Overview of This Information Collection

    Collection Title: Demographic Information on Federal Job 
Applicants.
    OMB Control No.: 3046-0046.
    Description of Affected Public: Individuals submitting applications 
for federal employment.
    Number of Annual Responses: 5,800.
    Estimated Time per Response: 3 minutes.
    Total Annual Burden Hours: 290.\1\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ This total is calculated as follows: 5,800 annual responses 
x 3 minutes per response = 17,400 minutes. 17,400/60 = 290 hours.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Annual Federal Cost: None.
    Abstract: Under section 717 of Title VII and 501 of the 
Rehabilitation Act, the Commission is charged with reviewing and 
approving federal agencies plans to affirmatively address potential 
discrimination before it occurs. Pursuant to such oversight 
responsibilities, the Commission has established systems to monitor 
compliance with Title VII and the Rehabilitation Act by requiring 
federal agencies to evaluate their employment practices through the 
collection and analysis of data on the race, national origin, sex and 
disability status of applicants for both permanent and temporary 
employment.
    Several federal agencies (or components of such agencies) have 
previously obtained separate OMB approval for the use of forms 
collecting data on the race, national origin, sex, and disability 
status of applicants. In order to avoid unnecessary duplication of 
effort and a proliferation of forms, the EEOC seeks an extension of the 
approval of a common form to be used by all federal agencies.
    Response by applicants is optional. The information obtained will 
be used by federal agencies only for evaluating whether an agency's 
recruitment activities are effectively reaching all segments of the 
relevant labor pool and whether the agency's selection procedures allow 
all applicants to compete on a level playing field regardless of race, 
national origin, sex, or disability status. The voluntary responses are 
treated in a highly confidential manner and play no part in the job 
selection process. The information is not provided to any panel rating 
the applications, to selecting officials, to anyone who can affect the 
application, or to the public. Rather, the information is used in 
summary form to determine trends over many selections within a given 
occupational or organization area. No information from the form is 
entered into an official personnel file.
    Burden Statement: Because of the predominant use of online 
application systems, which require only pointing and clicking on the 
selected responses, and because the form requests only eight questions 
regarding basic information, the EEOC estimates that an applicant can 
complete the form in approximately 3 minutes or less. Based on past 
experience, we expect that 5,800 applicants will choose to complete the 
form.
    Upon approval of this common form by OMB, federal agencies may 
request OMB approval to use this common form without having to publish 
notices and request public comments for 60 and 30 days. Each agency 
must account for the burden associated with their use of the common 
form.

    Dated: October 14, 2016.

    For the Commission.
Jenny R. Yang,
Chair.
