SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Occupational Requirements Survey (ORS)
is a nationwide survey that the BLS is conducting at the request of the
Social Security Administration. The Social Security Administration
(SSA), Members of Congress, and representatives of the disability
community have all identified collection of updated information on the
requirements of work in today's economy as crucial to the equitable and
efficient operation of the Social Security Disability (SSDI) program.
Estimates produced from the data collected by the ORS will be used by
the SSA to update occupational requirements data in administering the
SSDI and Supplemental Security Income programs. The ORS collects data
from a sample of employers. These requirements of work data consist of
information about the duties, responsibilities, and job tasks for a
sample of occupations for each sampled employer. For additional
substantive information about this ICR see the related notice published
in the Federal Register on December 19, 2022 (87 FR 77640).
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. The current
approval is scheduled to expire on August 31, 2024.
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.
