7386.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    Title; Associated Form; and OMB Number: OUSD--Policy Pulse Survey; 
OMB Control Number 0704-XXXX.
    Needs and Uses: The information collection requirement is necessary 
to obtain and record responses from contractor personnel employed 
within the Office of the Under Secretary of Defense for Policy and its 
components. The survey results are analyzed by the Leadership and 
Organizational Development Office to assess the progress of the current 
human capital strategy and to address emerging human capital and 
training issues.
    Affected Public: Individual or households.
    Annual Burden Hours: 76.5.
    Number of Respondents: 153.
    Responses per Respondent: 2.
    Annual Responses: 306.
    Average Burden per Response: 15 minutes.

the Office of Secretary of Defense for Policy as required by the Under 
Secretary of Defense for Policy to assess the effectiveness and 
progress of the current human capital strategy. If contractors are not 
permitted to take the survey then the assessment effectively excludes 
~20% of the employee population, diminishing the accuracy of the survey 
and resulting conclusions.
