SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In FY 2018, the Department of Labor and the
Social Security Administration launched a collaboration to develop and
test promising stay-at-work/return-to-work (SAW/RTW) early intervention
strategies and evaluate outcomes for individuals who are experiencing
work disability. The RETAIN Demonstration Projects provide
opportunities to improve SAW/RTW outcomes for individuals with both
occupational and non-occupational injuries and illnesses. The purpose
of the RETAIN employee participant information collection is to
understand and assess RETAIN program start-up, pilot projects, and full
implementation. For additional substantive information about this ICR,
see the related notice published in the Federal Register on November
12, 2021 (86 FR 62846).
This information collection is subject to the PRA. A Federal agency
generally cannot conduct or sponsor a collection of information, and
the public is generally not required to respond to an information
collection, unless the OMB approves it and displays a currently valid
OMB Control Number. In addition, notwithstanding any other provisions
of law, no person shall generally be subject to penalty for failing to
comply with a collection of information that does not display a valid
OMB Control Number. See 5 CFR 1320.5(a) and 1320.6.
DOL seeks PRA authorization for this information collection for
three (3) years. OMB authorization for an ICR cannot be for more than
three (3) years without renewal. The DOL notes that information
collection requirements submitted to the OMB for existing ICRs receive
a month-to-month extension while they undergo review.
