DEPARTMENT OF THE TREASURY


Agency Information Collection Activities; Submission for OMB 
Review; Comment Request; EEO Complaint Forms

AGENCY: Departmental Offices, U.S. Department of the Treasury.

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Department of the Treasury will submit the following 
information collection requests to the Office of Management and Budget 
(OMB) for review and clearance in accordance with the Paperwork 
Reduction Act of 1995, on or after the date of publication of this 
notice. The public is invited to submit comments on these requests.

DATES: Comments should be received on or before October 30, 2017.

ADDRESSES: Send comments regarding the burden estimate, or any other 
aspect of the information collection, including suggestions for 
reducing the burden, to Treasury PRA Clearance Officer, 1750 
Pennsylvania Ave. NW., Suite 8142, Washington, DC 20220, or email at 
[email protected].

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Copies of the submissions may be 
obtained from Jennifer Leonard by emailing [email protected], calling 
(202) 622-0489, or viewing the entire information collection request at 
www.reginfo.gov.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    Title: EEO Complaint Form.
    OMB Control Number: 1505-XXXX.
    Type of Review: New Collection.
    Abstract: Title 29 of the United States Code of Federal Regulations 
(CFR) part 1614, directs agencies to maintain a continuing program to 
promote equal opportunity and to identify and eliminate discriminatory 
practices and policies. The Department of the Treasury (Department) is 
thus required to process complaints of employment discrimination from 
Department employees, former employees and applicants for jobs with the 
Department who claim discrimination based on their membership in a 
protected class, such as, race, color, religion, sex (including 
pregnancy, sexual orientation and gender identity), national origin, 
age (over 40), disability, genetic information, or retaliation for 
engaging in prior protected activity. Claims of discrimination based on 
parental status are processed as established by Executive Order 11478 
(as amended by Executive Order 13152). Federal agencies must offer pre-
complaint ``informal'' counseling and/or Alternative Dispute Resolution 
(ADR) to these ``aggrieved individuals'' (the aggrieved), claiming 
discrimination by officials of the Department. If the complaint is not 
resolved during the informal process, agencies must issue a Notice of 
Right to File a Complaint of Discrimination form to the aggrieved. This 
information is being collected for the purpose of processing informal 
and formal complaints of employment discrimination against the 
Department on the bases of race, color, religion, sex (including 
pregnancy, sexual orientation and gender identity), national origin, 
age (over 40), disability, genetic information, parental status, or 
retaliation. Pursuant to 29 CFR 1614.105, the aggrieved must 
participate in pre-complaint counseling to try to informally resolve 
his/her complaint prior to filing a complaint of discrimination. 
Information provided on the pre-complaint forms may be used by the 
aggrieved to assist in determining if she or he would like to file a 
formal complaint against the Department.
    The information captured on these forms will be reviewed by the 
staff of the Department's Office of Civil Rights and Diversity to frame 
the claims for investigation and determine whether the claims are 
within the parameters established in 29 CFR part 1614. In addition, 
data from the complaint forms is collected and aggregated for the 
purpose of discerning whether any Department of the Treasury policies, 
practices or procedures may be curtailing the equal employment 
opportunities of any protected group.
