Agency Forms Undergoing Paperwork Reduction Act Review

    In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, the Centers 
for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has submitted the information 
collection request titled CDC Worksite Health ScoreCard (CDC ScoreCard) 
to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for review and approval. 
CDC previously published a ``Proposed Data Collection Submitted for 
Public Comment and Recommendations'' notice on September 27, 2021 to 
obtain comments from the public and affected agencies. CDC received two 
comments related to the previous notice. This notice serves to allow an 
additional 30 days for public and affected agency comments.
    CDC will accept all comments for this proposed information 
collection project. The Office of Management and Budget is particularly 
interested in comments that:
    (a) Evaluate whether the proposed collection of information is 
necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the agency, 
including whether the information will have practical utility;
    (b) Evaluate the accuracy of the agencies estimate of the burden of 
the proposed collection of information, including the validity of the 
methodology and assumptions used;
    (c) Enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to 
be collected;
    (d) Minimize the burden of the collection of information on those 
who are 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; and
    (e) Assess information collection costs.
    To request additional information on the proposed project or to 
obtain a copy of the information collection plan and instruments, call 
(404) 639-7570. Comments and recommendations for the proposed 
information collection should be sent within 30 days of publication of 
this notice to <a href="http://www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRAMain">www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRAMain</a>. Find this particular 
information collection by selecting ``Currently under 30-day Review--
Open for Public Comments'' or by using the search function. Direct 
written comments and/or suggestions regarding the items contained in 
this notice to the Attention: CDC Desk Officer, Office of Management 
and Budget, 725 17th Street NW, Washington, DC 20503 or by fax to (202) 
395-5806. Provide written comments within 30 days of notice 
publication.

Proposed Project

    CDC Worksite Health ScoreCard (CDC ScoreCard) (OMB Control No. 
0920-1014, Exp. 3/31/2022)--Extension--National Center for Chronic 
Disease Prevention and Health Promotion (NCCDPHP), Centers for Disease 
Control and Prevention (CDC).

Background and Brief Description

    The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has 
established the Worksite Health ScoreCard (CDC ScoreCard), an online 
organizational assessment tool, to enable employers to assess the 
number of evidence-based health promotion interventions or strategies 
in their worksites to promote employee health and well-being.
    The CDC ScoreCard will support small, mid-size, and large employers 
with three primary goals: (1) Assist employers in identifying gaps in 
their health promotion programs, and help them to prioritize high-
impact strategies for health promotion at their worksites; (2) Improve 
the health and wellbeing of employees and their families through 
science-based workplace health interventions and promising practices; 
and (3) Support research and increase understanding of the 
organizational programs, policies, and practices that employers of 
various sizes and industry sectors have implemented to support healthy 
lifestyle behaviors.
    CDC is requesting an extension to a previously approved data 
collection enabling existing employer users as well as new users to 
continue to have access to the CDC ScoreCard web-based organizational 
assessment tool (available at <a href="http://www.cdc.gov/healthscorecard">http://www.cdc.gov/healthscorecard</a>).
    CDC will provide outreach to, and register approximately 800 
employers per year to use the online survey, which is open to employers 
of all sizes, industry sectors, and geographic locations across the 
country. CDC ScoreCard users will create a user account, complete the 
online assessment and receive an immediate feedback report that 
summarizes the current status of their worksite health program; 
identifies gaps in current programming; benchmarks individual employer 
results against other users of the system; and provides access to 
worksite health tools and resources to address employer gaps and 
priority program areas.
    CDC will use the information collected to evaluate the 
effectiveness of the CDC ScoreCard in terms of (1) identifying success 
drivers for building and maintaining successful workplace health 
programs; (2) raising awareness and knowledge of science-based worksite 
health programs, policies and practices; and (3) developing additional 
worksite health tools and resources for employers. The information will 
also be used to evaluate the impact of the CDC Worksite Health 
Scorecard on employer adoption of worksite health programs, policies, 
and environmental supports.

    CDC requests a three-year OMB approval for this project. 
Participation in the CDC ScoreCard is voluntary and there are no costs 
to respondents other than their time. The total estimated annualized 
burden hours are 1,067.
